Scots cops searching for missing camper Reece Rodger are probing two sightings of him

Scots cops believe missing camper Reece Rodger may have been seen the day after he disappeared from friends.

Reece, 28, from Fife, was camping with pals in the north shore of Loch Rannoch, east of Killichonan – around 25 miles to the west of Pitlochry on Saturday March 18.

The group believed Reece was been heading to bed when they last saw him at around 11.30pn, but he was nowhere to be found on Sunday morning.

Officers are continuing to carry out enquiries into a sighting of a man matching Reece’s description around 11.30pm on Saturday, March 18, on the road between Liarn Farm and Aulich.

They are also looking into a possible sighting of Reece the following morning at around 8am on the B846 approximately one mile east of Aulich.

Reece is described as 6ft, of medium build with dark hair.

When last seen he was wearing a black long-sleeved t-shirt with distinctive white letters on both sleeves spelling out – MA STRUM, black jogging bottoms and black wellington boots.

Last weekend Police appealed to a man seen walking in the area at the time of Reece's disappearance to get in touch.

The person of interest is described as being of slim build and around 5ft 9ins in height, and was walking on the road between Learan Farm and Aulich, on the northern edge of Loch Rannoch at around 11.30pm on Saturday March 18. Cops say he was wearing dark clothing, and have asked him to get in touch.

Police continue to search the Loch Rannoch area and conduct enquiries to help trace Reece and are now re-appealing to the public for any information.

Inspector Stephen Gray said: “Our enquiries are continuing into these two possible sightings of men matching Reece’s description. If you have any information at all that might help us locate him, I urge you to contact us.

“Since Reece was reported missing we have been carrying out extensive searches to trace him. Local officers have been led by specialist search advisors and assisted by resources including the Air Support Unit, the Dive and Marine Unit, police dogs and Mountain Rescue Teams.

“We are continuing to speak to people in the local area and study any CCTV or personal footage that could help trace Reece.

“This is a very difficult and upsetting time for Reece’s family who are extremely concerned that he has not been in contact with them since last Saturday. This is completely out of character for him.

“If you have any dash-cam or private CCTV, please check it in case there is any detail that may help our search. If you have seen Reece, or have any information, no matter how small, please contact us on 101 with reference number 1348 of Sunday, 19 March.”
