A man who vanished on a night out in Edinburgh was found "safe and well" in Glasgow.

Aaron Connolly, 27, was in the capital on Friday night, but had not been in touch with family since 2.15am on Saturday.

His family became increasingly concerned for his wellbeing and described the East Renfrewshire man as "vulnerable".

Following a search and online appeal, Police Scotland confirmed Mr Connolly had been found by Saturday night.

Posting on Facebook, a force spokesperson said: "We are pleased to confirm that Aaron Connolly, who was reported missing from Edinburgh earlier today, has been traced safe and well in Glasgow.

"Thanks to everyone who helped with our appeal to find him."
