The mum of a missing Ayrshire teen is appealing for the public's help.
Ash Rowe, 13, was last spotted outside Ayr railway station just before 5pm on Wednesday, January 18.
Originally from Darvel, but living in New Farm, mother Mickaela describes Ash as roughly 5ft 1in tall.
At the time Ash was wearing black, knee-high, platform biker boots; a black puffer, bomber style jacket; possibly a green, frog bucket hat.
Ash also knows the Irvine Valley area well, so could be there.
Mickaela's Facebook plea to find Ash has been shared almost 500 times, with locals keen to trace the missing teen.
Sergeant Roslin Watson said : “As time goes on, we are growing increasingly concerned for Ash. If anybody has seen Ash, or has any information or knowledge as to his whereabouts then please contact us.
“Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 2016 of 18th January 2023.”
