'Growing concerns' for missing Scots pensioner who disappeared overnight
24.06.2023 - 08:17 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Police have launched an urgent appeal to help trace a missing pensioner who vanished overnight.
Alexander 'Alec' Murdoch was last seen in the North Berwick area at roughly 10pm on Friday. Authorities say this is 'very unusual' for the 71-year-old and 'concerns are growing' for his welfare.
Alexander has grey/white hair, balding on top with very close shaven sides and wears wire-framed glasses. He was last seen dressed in closed-toe beige sandals, navy shorts, a black or dark red t-shirt and possibly a beige jacket.
In an appeal shared by Alexander's daughter Lydia Rylance Murdoch, she said the family are worried that he may have suffered a stroke and may be 'lost or confused'.
Posting to Facebook, she wrote: "As many of you know he had a stroke in December 2021 so we're worried something similar may have happened again and he might be lost or confused as this is very out of character for him."
Inspector Laura Stevenson said: “This is very unusual for Alexander Murdoch and concerns are growing for his welfare. We want to make sure he is safe and well.
“If you have seen him or know where he might be, please get in touch.”
Anyone with information on Alexander's whereabouts is urged to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting reference number 2037 of Friday, 23 June, 2023
