A man who has repeatedly gone missing while walking has been reported missing again.
Police Scotland appealed for information on Andrew Moorhouse who is believed to have travelled to Lochaber.
Officers said the 47-year-old Sheffield man was last seen on Monday and reported missing the following afternoon.
A spokesperson said; “Andrew, who is a keen walker, is believed to have travelled to the Lochaber area. He is described as 5ft 9ins tall and of stocky build with balding red hair and a beard.
“He is wearing outdoor clothing and may be carrying a rucksack.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101, quoting incident 1910 of 8 October.
Mr Moorhouse was reported missing in Keswick, Cumbria, in September. He was reported safe and well a few days later. And in June this year an alert was issued by Police Scotland when he went missing in the Cairngorms. He was found within a couple of days.

I suspect he reports himself missing so he can get some weird sense of satisfaction from the attention he gets.
This is only a step down from those people who set fire to things so they can ring the fire brigade and watch the hassle they've caused.

11 October 2019There is something odd here! Is he wanting to go missing? Who Is the person who keeps reporting him missing? Either way both of them need help and need to know that this is essentially wasting time when people really need help or get lost. I

11 October 2019I reckon John is right when he suggests the bloke is reporting himself missing.
If he's doing this deliberately he want locking up.

17 October 2019I did know him for a while until he went missing. He usually splits up with a girl then threatens to kill himself and disappears. Pitty the guy use to volunteer for the Peak Rescue and caving rescue.
