Police are appealing for assistance from the public to help trace a camper who disappeared from the Kinloch Rannoch area in Perthshire during a trip with his friends.
Reece Rodger, from Fife, was last seen by his companions on Saturday night around 11.30pm.
His friends thought the 28-year-old was heading to bed but on Sunday morning there was no trace of him and he was reported missing.
Reece is described as 6ft in height and of slim build with dark-coloured hair. When he was last seen he was wearing a black t-shirt, black jogging trousers and wellington boots.
Sergeant James Longden of Pitlochry Police Station provided an update yesterday and said: “Reece was camping with his friends on the north shore of Loch Rannoch.
“He was last seen around 11.30pm on Saturday evening and they believed he was heading to bed. However there was no trace of him on Sunday morning and he was reported missing.
“We are extremely concerned for his safety as he is not dressed for the cold weather and he is not familiar with the area. Searches and enquiries are ongoing to trace him as soon as possible to ensure that he is safe and well.
“I would urge anyone who has seen Reece, or who has any information on his whereabouts, to contact police. I would also ask anyone living in the local area to please check their outbuildings or sheds in case he has taken shelter there.”
Any information should be passed to 101 quoting reference number 1348 of March 19.
