Efforts had been made by friends and colleagues to get in touch but no one had heard from him.

Out of concern for his welfare, he was reported missing to police on Monday November 2, 2020.

Constable Brown from Grangemouth Police Station, had said: "After speaking to neighbours, we know that Allan has not been home to Bo'ness for a few weeks now.

“He had been known to frequent the Paisley Road area of Glasgow and we believe he has been there recently. He may also have been homeless for a period of time.
