Tayside Police say they are increasingly concerned for missing Dundee woman Lynne McPaul, who has been missing since Sunday night.

The 45-year-old was last seen around 11.40pm in Perth Road, Dundee on Sunday, 23rd January, 2022. Police in the city say she is described as white, around 4 ft. 11 inches in height, with long brown hair.

Officers say extensive enquiries have been ongoing since she was reported missing, with an increased police presence within the community, who have also been joined by a number of specialist police search resources.

But so far, police say these have proved unsuccessful and Lynn remains missing.

Inspector Keith Anderson of Downfield Police Station said: “We are growing increasingly concerned for Lynn the longer she remains missing.

“It is out of character for her not to be in touch with anyone for this long. We are keeping her family fully informed as enquiries progress.

“We are continuing to work to establish Lynn’s movements since she was last seen and I would urge anyone who may have seen her at any time since late on Sunday evening or who has any other information at all to get in touch urgently.

“We also urge anyone who lives around the Strawberry Bank, Richmond Terrace and Magdalen Green area who may have dashcam, private CCTV or doorbell camera footage to review this and pass on anything of note to us.

“Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland via 101, quoting reference number 0157 of 24 January, 2022.”

Lynn is described as white, around 4ft 11in tall and of slim build with shoulder length dark brown hair. When last seen she was wearing a black knee-length coat with a white Nike logo on the back, and distinctive white Nike Air Force One trainers.
