Searches and enquiries are ongoing to trace 53-year-old James Clacher, who has been missing from his home in Bellshill since Monday, 30 May.

James was last seen in Airdrie about 4pm on Monday. He drives a Suzuki Swift which has been traced at the Loch Long car park in Arrochar in Argyll. He may have also travelled through the Tyndrum area.

He is described as being 5ft 6in tall, of athletic build and bald. When he was last seen he was believed to be wearing grey cargo style trousers with a black jacket or poncho, a black hat and black trainers

Sergeant Michael McConnell Coatbridge Police Station said: “James is a keen walker and covers large distances. Although his car was found in Arrochar and there is a possible sighting of him in Tyndrum, he could have travelled further afield and we are working with our colleagues in Argyll to carry out enquiries and searches to trace him.

“As time passed we are becoming extremely concerned for his wellbeing and safety. It is completely out of character for him not to keep in touch with his family and friends.

“I would urge anyone in the Lanarkshire and Argyll areas who has seen James since Monday, 30 May, or anyone with information on his whereabouts to contact officers through 101 with reference 0985 of 31 May.”
