A Scottish man missing in Las Vegas while on a solo holiday to the US city has been found.

The 27-year-old, from Falkirk, had failed to contact friends or family for almost a week and had his phone switched off before being located in the popular destination.

The UK Government’s foreign office and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) were both informed the man was missing.

However, an update shared on social media by friends revealed he had been found.

“The response to this post has been overwhelming and I cant really thank everyone enough who’s contributed to it whether it be sharing it or with messages trying to help,” a post on Facebook read.

“His family and friends will always be grateful.”
