Body found in search for missing Cole Cooper as family informed by police
The 19-year-old was reported missing on May 9 and was last spotted in the Longcraft area near Falkirk. The family of missing teenager Cole Cooper has been informed a body was found in a wooded area earlier today. The 19-year-old was reported missing last month on May 9 and was last spotted in the Longcraft area near Falkirk. Formal identification has yet to take place after a man's body was discovered in a wooded area near Kilsyth Road in Banknock at around 4.15pm on Friday, June 6. The grim discovery was made just a 15 minutes walk away from the last confirmed sighting of the teenager. Police Scotland said: "Around 4.15pm on Friday, 6 June, 2025, the body of a man was discovered in a wooded area near Kilsyth Road in Banknock. "Formal identification has yet to take place however the family of missing man Cole Cooper, 19, has been informed. Enquiries remain ongoing to establish the full circumstances." We told yesterday how the tragic teen's family said they had lived through a five weeks of "hell" and were planning to launch a fresh search for him. He went missing after visiting a pub in the Denny area before heading to a friend's party at around 3am last month. This Sunday would have marked five "long and painful" weeks since loved ones last heard from Cole. He last made contact on May, 4 and his cousin Aimee Tennie was hoping to gather the largest search for Cole yet and she launched an emotional plea for volunteers and support. On a dedicated Facebook page set up to help the search for Cole, Aimee said: "Every second, every minute, and every hour is becoming more painful. Sunday June 8 marks five weeks.

Just like that May 2025 is over and we begin a new month, a new month where Cole is still missing. We can't even begin to imagine this lasting any longer than it already has. We were living as normal only a month ago before this hell. "So, we are asking all of you, once again to come together in solidarity, in hope, that this week, is our last week of searching please think, if this was your child, what lengths you would go to, to bring them home we can't do this alone. We need all of you. "Please join our family once again to look for our Cole We are hoping this is our largest gathering yet, so please share, speak to friends, to family, to colleagues, bring who you can. We thank you all again for your amazing support." The family were also planning to give out ribbons containing a message pleading with Cole to return home, that could be tied across several search locations. Aimee added: "As well as searching for Cole, the family are inviting loved ones and volunteers to tie a ribbon for him with a message of "hope encouragement, or love to come home to us." Cole was captured on alarming ring doorbell footage on the morning of Sunday, May 4 around 6am in the Longcroft area. He was filmed trying to access his father's house unsuccessfully. A chilling video later later emerged of the teen in the Cumbernauld Road of the town area "running" and looking "spooked". Detectives investigating his disappearance say he was seen several days later on Wednesday, May 7. He had been at the intersection with Cumbernauld Road, in the Longcroft area. Police said he asked a schoolfriend for a lift around 8.45pm that evening.
