A deaf mum-of-four has been reported missing by friends after being last seen getting into a taxi early on Sunday morning.

Pals say that Kirsty Aitchison, who can only communicate using sign language, attended an event at Campus on Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, on Saturday night.

She was seen getting into a taxi around 4am on Sunday morning and hasn't been seen since.

Kirsty, 30, has waist-length, dark hair and was last seen wearing a cream skirt and a black jumper.

Kirsty's family are concerned by the disappearance which is reported to be completely out of character for her.

The Scotland Deaf Booze Crew was organised as a second annual event for those with hearing problems - nights out like it are popular among the deaf community.

Inspector Leigh McManus from Greater Glasgow Division said: “Kirsty hasn’t been missing before and it is completely out of character for her not to keep in contact with her family and friends.

"She was reported missing to police on Sunday afternoon.

“Officers are carrying out extensive enquiries to trace her, and I would ask anyone with any information on her whereabouts to contact Shettleston Police Office through the non-emergency number 101.”
