A CCTV image has been released of an elderly man who has dementia 24 hours after he went missing.
William Thom, from Bishopbriggs, East Dunbartonshire, had previously last been seen on a number 57 bus on Wednesday.
The 84-year-old got off at Bath Street in Glasgow city centre and a short time later was spotted there by CCTV at 1.53pm.
He is described as being 5ft 11ins, slim, with grey hair at the sides and bald on top.
When he was last seen the pensioner was wearing navy trousers, an olive green fleece and a grey baseball cap.
Chief Inspector Craig Walker said: "Along with his family, we are becoming increasingly concerned for William's welfare. He suffers from dementia and as such we are keen to find him as soon as possible.
"I would ask anyone who may have seen him, or anyone with information that could help us to trace him, to please contact local officers as soon as possible via 101, quoting reference number 2700 of 5 August, 2020."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
