Appeal to trace woman reported missing in the Penicuik area

POLICE are appealing for the help of the public to trace a 29-year-old woman reported missing from the Penicuik area.

Toni McNelis was last seen around midnight on Friday, 14 March, in the Edinburgh Road area of the town.

She has been spoken to on the phone by officers, however there are still concerns and we need to trace her.

Toni is described as being around 5ft 4in tall, of slim build, with long blonde hair. It is not known what she was wearing.

She may have travelled to the Glasgow area and also has links to Edinburgh.

Inspector Carlyn Simpson, Dalkeith Police Station, said: “We are concerned for Toni’s welfare and are asking anyone who knows where she might be to come forward.

“Her family and friends are extremely worried and just want to know she is safe and well.

“I would also appeal directly to Toni – if you see this, please get in touch.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1545 of 20 March.
