Arran is described as around 5ft 10ins tall, with short brown hair. It is not known what he was wearing when last seen.

Inspector Steven Hoggan said: “We have a number of police resources looking for Arran and we are eager to ensure he is safe.

“We are working with colleagues in Edinburgh as Arran has links to both the Restalrig and Lochend areas in the east of the city.

“I’d ask anyone who has seen, or spoken, to Arran since Sunday, 17 October, or who knows of his current whereabouts, to contact police as soon as possible.”
