Missing Aryshire man found safe and well

Missing hillwalker, Richard Lyon, has been found safe and well. Mr Lyon, aged 59, who had been missing from his home in Kirkmichael, Ayrshire, since 2 August was found yesterday afternoon (11 August) the day after his car had been found in Dunblane. Police had appealed to hillwalkers and the public to keep an eye out for the missing man who they believed might have been hillwalking as he is a keen Munroist.

Mr Lyon’s family issued a statement saying: “We would just like to thank everyone involved in helping to find Richard and we owe a great deal to those who supported the campaign.”
