A VULNERABLE man has gone missing from the Airdrie area. 

Paul Hadden, 41, was last seen at around 7pm on Saturday June 19 in Airdrie town centre.

Police have launched an appeal to help trace him. 

He is described as 5 ft 9, medium build, with short, dark receding hair. He was last seen wearing a burgundy anorak and was carrying a large holdall.

Sergeant Fiona Wallace from Airdrie Police Station said: “Paul likes to travel to different areas of Scotland and goes for nights away but it is extremely out of character for him not to be in touch with his family, and they are becoming increasingly worried about him.

“I am appealing for anyone who thinks they may have seen Paul, or has any information regarding his whereabouts, to come forward.

“I would also urge Paul to please get in touch with someone to confirm he is safe and well.

“Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland through 101, quoting incident number 1479 of 20th June.”
