A man who has been missing from his Edinburgh home for two weeks has been spotted in central London.

Stuart Hamilton, from the Gorgie area of the city, was reported missing on September 26 after family and friends lost contact with him.

The 37-year-old was spotted on CCTV at Edinburgh's Haymarket Station on Sunday at 10.16am. He then travelled by train to Manchester before being seen on Thursday in London.

Mr Hamilton is described as white, around 6ft 2in tall, with a medium build and short, dark, receding hair.

When last seen he was wearing a blue top underneath a black hooded top, blue jeans and white trainers. He was also carrying a dark rucksack.

Police Scotland has been working with Greater Manchester Police and the Metropolitan Police Service in order to trace the missing man. They are also continuing to conduct searches of CCTV images from across the country.

Inspector Jonathan Elliot of Drylaw Police Station said: "We are continuing our search for Stuart, which has now moved to London.

"Anyone who knows Stuart's whereabouts in either Edinburgh, Manchester or London, or recognises his description, is asked to contact police immediately."
