A Scottish man who went missing almost 25 years ago may now be living in London, according to police.

Peter McGuire, who was 21 when he disappeared, was last seen leaving a swimming pool in Dunfermline in January 1993.

His car was later discovered at the Forth Road Bridge but he was never seen again.

Police now believe a man using Mr McGuire's name and date of birth had been living in Hastings, East Sussex, before moving to west London.

In a statement, members of his family said: "Peter, you are a big part of our lives that is missing and the pain of that has never gone away.

"It would be a blessing to hear from you. We would love for you to be a part of our lives again in any way you choose, your terms, your pace, one step at a time."

Detective inspector Kelly McEwan, of Police Scotland, said: "At this time, we do not know if the male down south is indeed the Peter McGuire who went missing 25 years ago.

"We are conducting a thorough investigation and liaising with our colleagues at the relevant police forces to try and identify and speak to this individual.

"We would ask that if Peter McGuire becomes aware of this appeal then he comes forward to speak with us."

Anyone with information as to Mr McGuire's whereabouts are asked to contact Dunfermline Police on the non-emergency number 101.
