Belongings of a missing woman have been found near a bridge in Glasgow as police continue the search for her.

Emily Hope, 22, was reported missing after leaving the Mango nightclub on Sauchiehall Street in the early hours of Saturday morning and has not been in contact with her family or friends.

Following an extensive search of CCTV, Police Scotland tracked Ms Hope to the Tradeston bridge near the city centre, where some of her belongings were found.

Specialist officers, along with the marine unit, have been called in to help with the search.

Police Scotland have asked anyone who may have seen the 22-year-old, who lived in Jordanhill, to come forward.

She has been described as around 5ft 3in and of slim build, with shoulder-length brown hair and glasses.

Ms Hope was last seen wearing a black and white top, grey trousers and red shoes.

Inspector Gavin Smith said: A review of CCTV footage has revealed that Emily was last seen near the Tradeston bridge and personal items belonging to Emily have been found next to the River Clyde in the Tradeston area.

Officers, assisted by specialist search teams including the marine unit, will continue to search that area for Emily.

I would ask anyone who has seen Emily in Glasgow city centre or the Tradeston area to contact officers through 101 quoting reference number 1448 of February 22.''
