Police searching for missing woman release image of her jacket

Police searching for a woman who vanished in Dundee have released images of the jacket she was wearing when last seen as part of efforts to trace her.

Investigating officers said they’re becoming “increasingly concerned” for Lynn McPaul’s welfare.

The 45-year-old was last spotted in the city’s Perth Road, near to Strawberry Bank, at around 11.40pm on Sunday.

Despite extensive enquiries, including support from specialist police search resources, she is yet to be found.

Police have now released pictures of the black Nike jacket she was wearing when last seen.

Inspector Keith Anderson, of Downfield Police Station, said: “We are continuing with extensive searches and police enquiries in order to trace Lynn.

“It is completely out of character for her to be out of touch with her family for this length of time. We are growing increasingly concerned for her welfare the longer she remains missing.”

Residents in the Strawberry Bank, Richmond Terrace and Magdalen Green areas are being urged to check their sheds and outbuildings, as well as any dashcam, doorbell and private CCTV footage.

Anything of note should be reported to authorities.

Inspector Anderson added: “Lynn’s family is extremely concerned for her and we are providing family members with support and keeping them fully informed

“Alongside the search activity, we are continuing with conventional police enquiries to try and establish Lynn’s movements since she was last seen on Sunday.

“I would please ask anyone with information which has not yet been passed to police to get in touch urgently.

“Even if you feel your information may not be of note, it may help us piece together Lynn’s movements.”

If you have any information, call 101.
