A WOMAN has been missing from her family in Edinburgh for more than a week, sparking a police appeal for information.
Gina Ness, 50, was last seen in the capital's Broomouse Medway at around 9pm on Thurdsday, July 22.
She was reported missing on July 24 and has not been seen since.
Inspector Keith Forrester said: "It's out of character for Gina to be away for so long and not make contact with her family.
"I would ask members of the public who may have seen her recently to contact us on 101 quoting incident number 2007 of July 24.
"Likewise, if Gina sees this appeal, please call on 101 to let us know that you are safe and well."
She is described as being 5ft 3in tall, slim build and has dark/brown shoulder length hair.
When last seen, she was wearing a dark jacket, green stripped t-shirt, dark trousers and white trainers.
She was also wearing a dark hat with a distinctive purple peak to the front.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald 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
