Police have confirmed today they have traced a man who was reported missing from the Highlands this week.

The good news comes after Steven Kennedy, 62, was reported missing in the Conon Bridge area around 10pm on Monday, April 8.

Steven’s disappearance sparked an “urgent” search for his whereabouts but police now say he has been found safe and well.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Steven Kennedy, 62, reported missing from the Conan Bridge area, has been traced safe and well.

“Thank you to everyone who shared and responded to our previous appeal.”

Police were “concerned” for Steven Kennedy’s welfare

Police said this morning that they were becoming increasingly concerned for Steven’s welfare and were urgently trying to trace him.

Sergeant Michael Heath, Dingwall Police Station, earlier said: “We’ve been carrying out extensive searches for Steven and I’m asking for the public’s help as we continue our efforts to trace him.

“I’d urge anyone who thinks they may have seen Steven or has any information on his whereabouts to come forward.

“Steven, if you see this appeal, please make contact with police so we can ensure you’re safe and well.”
