Police appeal for missing Jim Greig

By Cara Sulieman

POLICE are appealing for help trying to track down a man who has gone missing after he failed to show up at his local pub.

Sixty-nine year old Jim Greig hasn’t been seen or heard from since last week by family or staff at his regular pub.

He is a well-known figure around his home in the Links Avenue area of Musselburgh, especially in the Sportsman Bar.

Friends and family have also failed to hear anything from him, and are worried about his safety.

As police don’t have a confirmed last sighting of Jim, and say they can’t even be sure when exactly he went missing.

He is described as white, 5ft 8ins tall, of medium build with balding grey hair.

Although he is usually seen with a dark coloured beanie hat, it isn’t known what he was wearing went he went missing.

A police spokesman said: “It is extremely unusual for Jim not to get in touch with his family or friends, and they are growing increasingly concerned for his welfare.

“We would appeal to anyone who may have seen him, or has any information regarding his whereabouts, to contact us immediately.”

Anyone with information should contact Lothian and Borders Police on 0131 311 3131, or Crimestoppers in complete anonymity on 0800 555 111.
