A 27-year-old man from Drongan has went missing.

Police Scotland are appealing for information from the public to trace Mark McCubbin after he was last seen leaving his home address at Hollytree Cottage just north east of Drongan around 4pm on Sunday, May 13.

He is described as being around 5ft 5, of slim build with short dark brown hair. When last seen he was wearing black jogging trousers, a green or blue short sleeved t-shirt and blue canvas trainers. He usually wears earrings.

Chief Inspector Gary I’Anson, Area Commander, said: “Mark was reported missing to police around 9.40 am this morning and officers, along with a number of specialist resources, have been searching the area as well as speaking to family and friends to try and trace him.

“He is not thought to have any money or a mobile phone with him and therefore we do not believe he will have travelled far.

“We know he has been dealing with some personal issues lately and as time passes, ourselves and his family are becoming extremely concerned for his wellbeing and would appeal to anyone who knows Mark, or knows of his whereabouts to come forward and contact us.”

Anyone with information should contact officers at Ayr Police Station via 101, quoting incident number 0909 of Monday 14 May 2018.
