CCTV image released by police in search for missing man

Police have appealed for information following the disappearance of a man from Alloa. Redmond Taylor has not been seen since leaving Falkirk's Forth Valley Royal Hospital, in Larbert, at around 12.30pm on February 12.

Officers indicated that they had established from CCTV that he was walking in the Torwood area about an hour later at 1.30pm.

The 26-year-old, who lives in Alloa and has links to the Tullibody area, has not been in contact with his family since and concern is growing for his welfare.

Mr Redmond is described as white, around 5ft 7ins, of slim build, with short brown hair, blue eyes and stubble.

He was last seen wearing a black bomber jacket, navy blue jeans and grey trainers, and is known to travel across the Central Belt, particularly to Edinburgh and Glasgow, and to the Fife area.

Sergeant Derek McKie of Alloa Police Station said: I am asking for the public's help as part of our enquiries.

Particularly I would ask that residents in the Torwood area check their gardens, outbuildings where Redmond may have sought shelter and any private CCTV.

Likewise, I would appeal to any motorists who were on the A9 at Torwood around 1.30pm on Tuesday February 12 to check any dashcam footage.'
