Police are appealing for the help of the public to trace a 73-year-old man reported missing from the Currie area.
Gary Hardie was last seen around 2.30am in Lanark Road West and is most likely to be out walking, possibly heading to the Drylaw area of the city.
He is described as white, around 5ft 8ins, of medium build and with short grey hair, bald on top. When last seen he was wearing a maroon jumper, blue jeans and blue trainers.
Inspector George Nisbet said: “Concerns are growing for Gary’s welfare and it is important that we make sure he is safe and well.
“He may have been walking around and heading towards the Telford Drive and Mountcastle Loan areas where he has connections.
“We are asking people to keep a look out for Gary and also check gardens, sheds and outbuildings in case he has sought shelter or become disorientated.
“If you have seen Gary or know where he might be then please get in touch with us immediately.”
Anyone who can help is asked to call Police Scotland on 101, quoting reference number 0389 of Thursday, 26 December.
