Police searching for a Glasgow busker who disappeared nearly three weeks ago have issued a new description of what he may have been wearing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lewis Cuthbert was last seen around 4pm on Monday, August 4, in the Lesmahagow Road area in Strathaven.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old is described as around 5ft 10ins, of slim build with short brown curly hair.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, police issued a new description of what he was wearing when he left his home.<\/p>\n

Officers now believe he was wearing a light brown corduroy jacket with a sheepskin-lined collar and jeans.<\/p>\n

He is known to frequent Glasgow city centre to busk.<\/p>\n

However, officers said he is known to travel to other areas in Scotland.<\/p>\n

As it is festival season in Edinburgh, he may have travelled to the capital.<\/p>\n

Police said he may be carrying a black backpack, a Bluetooth speaker and a microphone.<\/p>\n

Inspector Billy Sloan said: \u201cUnfortunately, despite a significant search for Lewis, there have been no sightings of him since he went missing from Strathaven.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis family are understandably very concerned for his welfare and just want him to come home.<\/p>\n

\u201cSpecialist officers continue to search where he was last seen, and police colleagues in Glasgow and Edinburgh have been searching for him too.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have issued this appeal in the hope that Lewis himself will see that people what to make sure he is safe and to get in touch.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d also hope to reach any of his friends or people he may have stayed with over the last two weeks. We\u2019d urge them, or anyone who knows where he may be, or who has information that will help trace him, to call police or advise him to go home.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d remind people to check their gardens, sheds or out-houses in case he had sought shelter locally.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anyone who can help is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101<\/strong>, quoting incident number 1371 of Friday, August 8, 2025.<\/p>\n
