A police appeal has been launched to find a man who disappeared on Saturday.

Matthew Elmer was last seen in Poplar Grove in Livingston on Saturday at around 6pm.

The 23-year-old has not been in touch with family or friends since, and concern is growing for his welfare.

Mr Elmer is white with blue eyes and dark brown hair, which is short at the sides and sometimes styled on top.

He is 5ft 8in tall and has a slim build. He was seen wearing a black jacket, black jogging trousers and white canvas laced up trainers.

He has black studs in both ears and was wearing a grey woollen hat.

Inspector Marion Steele said: "We are growing increasingly concerned for Matthew as he has not been in touch with friends or family since yesterday.

"We are asking anyone who may have seen him since yesterday at 6pm to please get in touch with us. Similarly if Matthew himself sees this appeal, we would ask him to contact his family or friends to let them know he is okay.”

Anyone with information can contact police on 101.
