A NEW CCTV image has been released as the search for a missing man continues.
We previously reported that the last confirmed sighting of Evan Reid was at around 10.06pm on Inchinnan Road in Paisley on Saturday, March 25.
It is understood the 31-year-old, who is from Irvine, boarded the 9.30pm train at Glasgow Central heading to Irvine, but got off in Paisley after texting his partner to say "something dodgy" was happening.

Police are now issuing a fresh appeal for information almost one week since he disappeared and have released a new CCTV image of Evan on Inchinnan Road.
Officers believe the road was busy with cars and there were pedestrians in the area who may have information about what happened to Evan before he was reported missing.
They are appealing for anyone who was in the area near the River Cart at this time, either on foot or in a vehicle, to come forward.

Community Policing Inspector Laura Hamill, who is leading the enquiry, said: "We are continuing our efforts to trace Evan Reid and would urge anyone who may have seen him on the night in question or thereafter to come forward.
"No matter how small you think the information is, it could be the vital piece we need to find out what happened to Evan.
"I’d also like to ask anyone who has premises with a camera or vehicles with dashcams that are in the surrounding area to check for signs of Evan, if we have not already made contact with you."
