Police are pursuing a new line of investigation in the search for Barry McCullagh who disappeared in Paisley more than two weeks ago.
New CCTV footage of the 40-year-old dad-of-two has shown a man matching Barry’s description walking along Lounsdale Road outside the Lord Lounsdale Pub around 5.33pm on Wednesday, October 5.
Before this, the last known sighting of Barry was on Corsebar Road at 5.20pm.
Barry, from Castlemilk, Glasgow, had been a patient at the Royal Alexandra Hospital at the time of his disappearance. He’d been receiving treatment as he’d been suffering from seizures.
It is thought that he was allowed outside for a smoke at the time he went missing.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Officers in Paisley continue to appeal for information to help trace missing man Barry McCullagh.
