The Metropolitan Police have launched an intensive search operation for 36-year-old Gus Lamont, whose sudden disappearance from central London has left family and authorities deeply concerned.
Last Sightings and Timeline
Lamont was last captured on CCTV surveillance footage entering Westminster Underground Station at approximately 10:30 PM on Tuesday evening. According to police statements, he was wearing a distinctive dark green jumper and blue jeans at the time of his disappearance.
Detective Inspector Sarah Chen, leading the investigation, revealed: "We are treating this as a high-priority missing persons case. Gus's disappearance is completely out of character, and we're pursuing multiple lines of inquiry to locate him safely."
Family's Emotional Appeal
The Lamont family has issued an emotional plea for information, describing Gus as "a beloved brother and son who would never voluntarily cut contact with his family."
His sister, Eleanor Lamont, fought back tears as she told reporters: "We're utterly devastated and worried sick. If anyone has seen Gus or knows anything about his whereabouts, please come forward. We just want him home safe."
Police Investigation Intensifies
Scotland Yard has deployed additional resources to the case, including:
- Specialist search teams scouring central London locations
- Review of extensive CCTV footage from surrounding areas
- Door-to-door inquiries in Westminster and neighbouring districts
- Coordination with transport police and network rail authorities
Authorities are particularly interested in speaking with anyone who might have seen Lamont in the Victoria Embankment gardens area or along the River Thames pathways.
Public Urged to Come Forward
Police have established a dedicated hotline and are encouraging anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to contact the incident room immediately. Detective Inspector Chen emphasized: "Even the smallest detail could prove crucial in helping us find Gus and bring him back to his worried family."
The investigation continues as concern grows for the missing London man's welfare.
