Sharing this here as hoping to get Liam’s pic out as much as possible.
Liam is 16 years old.
He was last seen at around 12pm on Saturday 17 November 2018 in the Queens Road area of Aberdeen.
Liam is described as white, 6'4" and has short brown hair, slim build, wearing dark top, blue jeans and Nike Air Max trainers and carrying a North Face backpack.

Police are now focusing their search on Banchory.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1302 of 18 November.

The access to Hill of Fare is at the end of Raemoir Rad (through the hotel). Could there be a Bothy up there.....?

emummy · 23/11/2018 12:47

There is a bothy Aurea but I think its usually locked, the Scouts use it sometimes

I can't even imagine what his family is going through Sad

Aurea · 23/11/2018 14:44

He's now supposed to have got off the bus at Crathes. Weird, as a friends dog went missing at Crathes estate chasing deer same day, same place and has yet to be spotted. Many people have been searching for the dog though....unaware of Liam's disappearance in the area.

ItWasntMeItWasIm · 23/11/2018 14:52

Thanks for the update.

emummy · 23/11/2018 15:38

I was looking for the dog at Crathes today Aurea, going back tomorrow if she's still missing. Funnily enough was thinking how much forest there is there to get lost in, parts where not many people go.

FindLiam · 23/11/2018 16:22

That’s the problem - there really is so much forest around there. We have lots of local help so are aware of lots of bothys, fishing huts etc. Not to mention all the rundown farm buildings etc
Theres a new appeal from Martin MacKay - latest appeal
There was certainly police kayaks out on the river, dogs and a large presence at Milton of Crathes today.

That was a very heartfelt plea from the leading officer. I hope the others on the bus come forward.

His poor family.

Thanks for the bumps everyone.
Hoping to get more fliers out tomorrow and more searching. But anyone who knows the area will know it’s not exactly an easy job!

I shared the police appeal on facebook. I am in Lincolnshire..I suppose getting the info out far and wide might be helpful. What an absolute nightmare.

OhioOhioOhio · 24/11/2018 09:34

I cant believe no one has heard anything. The police have such a difficult job.

FindLiam · 24/11/2018 09:54

I know, and they are chasing up every single lead and sighting :(
