A teenager who went missing while visiting friends in Coatbridge has been traced safe and well in nearby Uddingston.

Shaun Sweeney, 19, from Berwick, had travelled to North Lanarkshire to stay with friends who had seen him going to bed on Thursday night.

When they woke up the next morning he had gone, and was later sighted in Kirkwood at around 10.30am on Friday.

All efforts by friends and family to get in contact had been unsuccessful, which they said was very "unusual" behaviour for him.

But police confirmed on Saturday morning the 19-year-old had been located in Uddingston, South Lanarkshire.

Officers thanked the public and the media for sharing their appeal.
