Police 'extremely concerned' for safety of missing Girvan man

Police have launched a search to trace a man missing from his home in Girvan.

Ross Noble, 31, was last seen around 6pm last night (Thursday) in the Kelloholm area of Dumfries and Galloway.

He is described as white, around 5ft 8ins in height and of slim build with black hair. When he was last seen he was wearing a grey t-shirt with grey jogging trousers and black trainers. He may also be wearing a red and black rain jacket.
