Concern grows for Scots man missing for several days

Police are becoming increasingly concerned for the welfare of a man missing for days.

Derek Marshall, also known as Laidlaw, was reported missing while visiting Fife from Dumfries.

The 40-year-old was last seen in the Muirhead area of Fife at around 10.30am on Saturday, 14 May.

He had suggested to a member of the public at the time that he planned to walk to Dundee.

Police Scotland have described Derek as being white, around 5ft 8ins in height, with short dark hair.

He was wearing blue jeans and a black puffer jacket at the time of his disappearance.

Inspector Kirk Donnelly from Glenrothes Police Station said: “As time passes, our concerns for Derek’s welfare continue to grow.

"We are appealing to anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts or who may have seen him in Fife or Tayside over the weekend, to please come forward.”

Anyone with information about Derek's whereabouts should call police on 101, quoting incident 1751 of Saturday, May 14.
