A man's body has been found near Clachan in Argyll during the search for missing 22-year-old Leo Roberts, Police Scotland have confirmed.

The body was found on the afternoon of Sunday 8 November. Formal identification has yet to take place, but the family of Leo Roberts, who was reported missing from the area, have been informed. Police said the death is not believed to be suspicious and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal in due course.

Leo Roberts was last seen getting off the number 926 Glasgow to Campbeltown bus in Clachan at around 9.30pm on Sunday 1 November. After days without contact, his family reported him missing to police on Wednesday 4 November.

Police Scotland issued an urgent appeal to find the young man, saying at the time that concerns were growing for his welfare. Inspector Gav McDevitt said it was out of character for Leo not to be in touch with his family for so long and that there were real concerns for his wellbeing.

Officers and volunteers searched the area around Clachan, a small village on the A83 in Argyll, over the following days. Members of the public had been urged to keep a lookout for Leo and to contact police with any information.

In a statement, Police Scotland said: "On the afternoon of Sunday, 8 November, 2026, the body of a man was found near to the Clachan area of Argyll. Formal identification has yet to take place, however the family of 22-year-old Leo Roberts, who was reported missing from the area, have been informed. The death is not believed to be suspicious, and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal in due course."

Leo had recently started college in Edinburgh, according to a family friend, and had travelled to Argyll before he went missing. The search had drawn support from local volunteers as well as police teams in the days after he was reported missing, with appeals shared widely online by family friends and the local community.

Clachan is a small village on the A83 in Argyll, on the road between Glasgow and Campbeltown. The number 926 bus service runs the length of the Kintyre peninsula, and Leo was last seen stepping off it in the village at around 9.30pm. Police had asked anyone who travelled on that service on the evening of 1 November, or who was in the Clachan area that night, to come forward.

Police have not released further details about where exactly the body was found or the circumstances of the discovery, and formal identification is still awaited. A report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal, as is standard practice in Scotland when a death is reported to the authorities.
