POLICE are appealing for assistance to trace an Isle of Bute woman last seen this morning.
Teressa Bennet, 60, was last seen on Loch Fad Road in Rothesay around 8.50am on Monday, June 17.
It is believed that Teressa left her red and black coloured Toyota Yaris car on East Princes Street.
She is described as being around 5ft 2ins tall, of medium build with blonde hair in a bob. She is thought to be wearing the purple jacket in the picture below.
Police Scotland said that it is possible she may have travelled to Gourock and they are becoming concerned for her welfare.
Inspector Bart Simonis said: "We are becoming increasingly concerned for Teressa's welfare and are keen to trace her as soon as possible.
"Please check any private CCTV or dashcam footage which may help us in tracing her."
Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland on 101, quoting reference number 1628 of June 17.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
