Lothian and Borders Police are appealing for assistance from the public to trace some medication that was lost earlier today in Edinburgh.
The drugs, including methadone and valium, were discovered missing at around 1pm this afternoon. The female informant told police she may have misplaced the medication on a number 30 bus sometime between 9.50am and 10.15am.
Officers are conducting local enquiries and are urging members of the public to come forward if they find them as a matter of urgency.
A police spokesman said:- “This medication should only be taken by the person it is prescribed to and could have significant health implications if taken by anyone else. Anyone who comes across these drugs should contact police immediately or hand them into the nearest police station.”
Anyone with any information can contact Lothian and Borders Police on 0131 311 3131, or the charity Crimestoppers in confidence and complete anonymity on 0800 555 111.
