Missing Man May Be in Fife

Police are appealing for help in tracing an missing Edinburgh man with health issues who may be in Fife.

Stuart Eddison, 54, was last seen in the Morningside area of the capital just after 10:30 yesterday morning, and may have gotten into a taxi.

Since then, he has not been in touch with friends or family and police are growing increasingly concerned for his welfare as he has a number of health issues that require ongoing attention.

Stuart is familiar with the Gorgie area and may be in the vicinity. He also has strong links to Fife, particularly in the Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes areas.

Local officers are conducting various lines of enquiry and are keen to hear from the taxi driver who may have picked up the Edinburgh-man. 

Anyone who has seen Stuart or has relevant information on his whereabouts is asked to contact police immediately. 

He is around 5ft 10in tall, of large build and was wearing a grey t-shirt, grey tracksuit bottoms and brown boots.

Sergeant Murray Tait of Police Scotland said: "It is now more than 24-hours since anyone has seen Stuart and we are keen to establish his whereabouts as soon as possible and ensure he is safe and well.

"Anyone who believes they have seen him since Thursday morning, or has information that can help us find him, is asked to contact police immediately on 101.

"In addition, I would also urge Stuart to get in touch with friends, family or the police and let us know he is safe."
