Police are appealing for information to help trace a man reported missing from the city.

Robert Sloan was last seen around Haymarket on Monday 9 May at about 8.30am.

The 46-year-old hasn’t been in contact with friends or family since then, and concern is growing for his welfare.

Robert is described as having dark receding hair, bald on top, but sometimes wears a wig as he is known to perform songs dressed as the relevant singer in the city centre.

He was last seen wearing a white baseball cap, dark Henley jacket with white writing on the left shoulder.

Constable Owen Hopkins, of Leith Police Station, said: “It’s possible that Robert may be sleeping in a tent, and he may be in the Roseburn or Murrayfield areas although he is thought to have connections in East and Midlothian.

“We’re concerned for Robert and are keen to hear from anyone who may have information about where he is. Equally, we would like to hear from Robert.”

Those with any information can contact Police Scotland on 101.
