Update: Police Scotland announce late on Monday evening that a body of a woman had been found
AN APPEAL has been launched to try to trace a 46-year-old woman last seen on Friday.
Police in East Lothian are looking for help from the public to find Maureen Mary Steele, who was last seen leaving her home in Tranent.
She is described as white, five-foot-four-inches with shoulder-length blonde hair.
Officers are not sure at the moment what she is wearing, but she has access to a silver Vauxhall Corsa, with the registration SG16 EWT.
Inspector Mark Wilson said: “It's out of character for Maureen not to be in touch with her family or friends and they are very worried.
"We just want to know she is safe and well.
"If anyone has seen Maureen or her vehicle, please contact officers at Tranent Police Station urgently via 101, quoting reference 4691 of August 1."
