Police are appealing to help identify a man whose body was found in the River Tay at Aberfeldy.

The man's body was discovered by a member of the public near Wade's Bridge at about 09:40 on Saturday.

Officers said the man's death is not believed to be suspicious.

He is described as white, in his late 50s or older, around 6ft 4in tall, medium build with sandy blonde and grey wavy hair, and wearing black underwear.

Det Insp Simon Murray said: “There were no personal belongings near to where he was found, and no-one has reported anyone matching his description missing to police.

"We would ask any local residents if this description resembles anyone they know lives locally?

"For any wider public who have been in the Aberfeldy area over the past couple of weeks, does this resemble anyone they may have seen in the area?"
