A woman who went missing from her parent's house was found after police discovered her car outside a supermarket.

Her friend raised the alarm when her car was found abandoned outside a supermarket.

The white Mercedes was discovered on Tuesday afternoon outside a branch of ScotMid near The Castle Rooms in Uddingston.
