A search has been launched for a missing man whose belongings were found near the Forth Road Bridge.

Chinese national Xingshaui Hu took a train from Edinburgh Waverley to North Queensferry station on Friday, arriving at around 11pm.

The 23-year-old has not been heard from since then and police are growing concerned for his welfare.

Some of his personal belonging were found near the Forth Road Bridge and searches are taking place across Edinburgh and Fife to find any trace of him.

Inspector Steven Stewart said: "We want to trace Xingshaui as soon as possible to ensure he's alright and anyone with information should contact police immediately.

"In addition, we would also urge Xingshaui to get in touch and let us know he's safe and well."

Anyone with information has been asked to contact police via 101.
