A deaf mother-of-four has gone missing after attending a deaf event hosted at a Glasgow nightclub.
Kirsty Aitchison, 30, from the Royston area, was last seen on Saturday night at 3am in Glasgow City centre after attending Scotland Deaf Booze Crew event in Campus nightclub.
Family and friends have issued an urgent appeal for information on the young mother who can only communicate in sign language.
Reports suggest she got into a private hire taxi at the end of the night.
Kirsty is described as having long dark hair, 5ft in height and with a slim build.
She was last seen wearing a black crop top, a cream mid length skirt and black heels.
Inspector Leigh McManus from Greater Glasgow Division said:
“Kirsty hasn’t been missing before and it is completely out of character for her not to keep in contact with her family and friends. She was reported missing to police on Sunday afternoon.
“Officers are carrying out extensive enquiries to trace her, and I would ask anyone with any information on her whereabouts to contact Shettleston Police Office through the non-emergency number 101.”
Why are you making commenting on HeraldScotland only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
