Police are appealing for any information that could help trace a man who officers wish to speak with urgently.
Jamie Ross, 29, is thought to have been present in the Howdenhall Road area of Edinburgh at around 12.28pm yesterday. He was last seen shortly after near Cameron Toll shopping centre.
Jamie is believed to have connections across Edinburgh, particularly in the south of the city, as well as in Aberdeen.
He is described as white, 5ft9 with dark hair and bushy eyebrows, blue eyes and a tattoo of the word DAD on his right hand. He was last seen wearing a black puffer jacket, dark trousers and grey trainers.
Chief Inspector Mark Hamilton said: “Extensive enquiries are ongoing to trace Jamie with support from specialist officers.
“While Jamie is believed to have connections to the south of Edinburgh we are keeping an open mind regarding his whereabouts at this time and would urge anyone with information to please get in touch.
“Anyone who sees a man matching Jamie’s description is advised not to approach him but to instead contact Police Scotland urgently on 101, quoting incident number 1458 of Tuesday, 23 April, 2024.”
Free road safety events held at Cameron Toll Shopping Centre on 10 and 11 April
Local children visiting Cameron Toll Shopping Centre in Edinburgh on 10 and 11 April will be treated to a special storytelling show with the loveable Road Safety Scotland* character Ziggy, to remind them of the importance of staying safe on our roads.
The free event is part of a road safety roadshow taking place during the Easter school holidays, designed to equip young children with the skills, knowledge and attitudes to help keep them safe on our roads, both now and later in life.
Together with Ziggy – an alien visiting Earth to learn about road safety – children will enjoy a fun, interactive storytelling show which brings to life important road safety messages. Exciting giveaways will also be available, including a Ziggy storybook.
The sessions will run six times a day on 10 and 11 April starting at 10.30am and hourly until the last session at 3.30pm. In between shows children can enjoy some colouring in to keep them entertained during the school holidays.
Claire Jefcoate, Centre Manager at Cameron Toll said: “We are delighted to welcome Ziggy to Cameron Toll for these fun and lively school holiday sessions – a great way for children and families to learn about road safety together.
“I’m sure our youngest visitors will love the interactive storytelling show and be excited to meet Ziggy in person!”
Debbie Nicol, Assistant Director, Road Safety Scotland, said: “It is important that children are immersed in positive road safety attitudes from a young age, both in the classroom and at home.
“Ziggy is a fun character with an important role and activities like this will help put invaluable skills into practice and create lasting memories.”
