Glasgow headlines 13 November: Concern for missing Shawlands teen

A teenager from the Shawlands area has been missing since Friday 10 October after leaving a note for his mum saying he needed to clear his head.

15-year-old Winston Hastings Kearse did not attend school that day and left his mother’s home without his phone, bank card or any money - the only possessions he took were two teddy bears.

He is 5ft 5in in height, of slim build with dark hair.

Next up, a body has been found in the River Kelvin one month after a woman went missing in the area following an incident.

Emergency services were called on 11 October reporting concern for two people who went missing near the water while a man was subsequently rescued.

A search has been underway since for the 58-year-old woman, though a formal identification of the body is yet to take place.

And in other news, a local woman has completed her six-month pilgrimage from her home in Glasgow to Rome where she met the Pope on arrival.

Geraldine McFaul walked an average of 12 miles per day to raise funds for Mary’s Meals and Demential UK.

She was met by her loved ones in Rome who had flown over to celebrate the journey.
