Police ‘increasingly concerned’ amid search for missing father and three-year-old son

UK

Police in Scotland are growing “increasingly concerned” as they search for a missing father and his three-year-old son.

James Forbes, 36, and son James were last seen in the Edinburgh Road area of Perth at around 1.50am on Friday.

Police Scotland is appealing for help tracing the pair who were travelling in a silver Ford Transit van, registration ST67 JTU, when they were last sighted.

Investigating officers believe they may have travelled to the Fife or Forth Valley areas.

Inspector Stephen Gray said: “We’re growing increasingly concerned for this father and son who have not been in contact with family since the early hours of this morning.

“I’d urge anyone who thinks they may have seen them, or the vehicle, to contact us as quickly as possible so we can ensure they’re safe and well.”
