Missing busker may have travelled to Edinburgh say police
Police have issued a new description of a what missing person Lewis Cuthbert, 25, is believed to have been wearing when he left his home in Strathaven more than two weeks ago. He was last seen around 4pm on Monday, 4 August 2025, in the Lesmahagow Road area. He is described as around 5ft 10ins, of slim build with short brown curly hair. We now believe he was wearing a yellow & brown 'bomber' style jacket with white fur inside with a large collar/hood, and jeans. Lewis is a busker and frequents Glasgow City Centre. However, he has been known to travel to other areas of Scotland, and with this being festival time in Edinburgh, he may have travelled through to the capital. He may be carrying a black backpack, a Bluetooth speaker and a microphone. Inspector Billy Sloan said: 'Unfortunately, despite a significant search for Lewis, there have been no sightings of him since he went missing from Strathaven. 'His family are understandably very concerned for his welfare and just want him to come home. 'Specialist officers continue to search where he was last seen, and police colleagues in Glasgow and Edinburgh have been searching for him too. 'We have issued this appeal in the hope that Lewis himself will see that people what to make sure he is safe and to get in touch. 'We'd also hope to reach any of his friends or people he may have stayed with over the last two weeks. We'd urge them, or anyone who knows where he may be, or who has information that will help trace him, to call police or advise him to go home. 'We'd remind people to check their gardens, sheds or out-houses in case he had sought shelter locally.' Anyone who can help is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1371 of Friday, 8 August 2025. Like this: Like Related
