Police are warning the public not to approach a “dangerous” missing man who they are urgently searching for.

Grant McKinnon, 30, was last seen in Cardowan Road, Glasgow, at 4am on Saturday morning – the same time police were called to the “suspicious” death of a woman in the area.

Police Scotland have not confirmed if the two incidents are linked.

Anyone who has seen Mr McKinnon has been told not to approach him and instead to call 999 immediately.

He is 6ft tall and was last seen wearing a black jacket with a red hood and blue jeans.

Detective Superintendent Gary Ferguson said: “Grant is considered to be dangerous and I’m appealing for information from the public to help us trace him as soon as possible.

“If anyone sees Grant, they should not approach him but contact police immediately.

Earlier, Police Scotland said the death of a woman who was injured in Cardowan Road was being treated as “suspicious”.

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene and detectives launched an investigation.
