POLICE are renewing their appeal to trace a missing man from East Renfrewshire after his car was found in Ayrshire.

Gordon Proctor was last seen in his home area of Netherlee in East Renfrewshire around 11.15am on Tuesday, 6 July.

A coordinated multi-agency search of the coast took place last week, involving lifeboats as far south as Stranraer and Portpatrick and as north as Ardrossan.

His white Renault Kadjar car was later discovered in the Turnberry area in South Ayrshire and searches have been ongoing in the area.

Gordon is described as being 6ft tall and of slim build with short brown hair. He was wearing a lilac polo shirt, a blue jumper and cream shorts.

Sergeant Steven Woodley of Ayr Police Station said: “We are growing increasingly concerned for Gordon’s welfare as time passes.

“Extensive search activity has been carried out around the Turnberry area and other police enquiries aimed at tracing him are ongoing. It is out of character for him to be out of contact with his family for so long and we are keeping them informed as our enquiries continue.

“We would urge anyone who believes they may have seen Gordon at any time since the early afternoon of Tuesday, 6 July to get in touch as a matter of urgency.

“Anyone who can help is asked to call 101, quoting incident 2460 of 6 July.”

which I think we had here before.

It seems although no body found, it is generally believed and accepted Mr Proctor died sometime in July 2021 after going missing.
