Scott Hutchison of Frightened Rabbit has been reported missing
Singer-songwriter Scott Hutchison of Scottish indie band Frightened Rabbit has been reported missing by his family. According to a report in the BBC, Hutchison was last seen around 1 a.m. UK time leaving the Dakota Hotel in South Queensferry, Scotland, wearing a dark baseball cap, navy blue hooded jacket, grey or khaki trousers and white trainers. The BBC says he is believed to be in Edinburgh, where police are searching for him.
Via Twitter, his bandmates expressed concern for Hutchison’s well-being:
We are worried about Scott, who has been missing for a little while now. He may be in a fragile state and may not be making the best decisions for himself right now. Please could Scott or anyone with any information on his whereabouts please contact Police Scotland (101).

This came after Hutchison posted two vague tweets late last night.
Be so good to everyone you love. It’s not a given. I’m so annoyed that it’s not. I didn’t live by that standard and it kills me. Please, hug your loved ones.

Police Scotland inspector Graeme Dignan shared the following statement with the BBC:
“We are keen to locate Scott as soon as possible to ensure he is safe and well and would urge anyone who can assist with our ongoing inquiries to come forward.
“If you believe you have seen him since the early hours of Wednesday morning or know where he currently is, then please contact police immediately.
“I’d also urge Scott to get in touch with family, friends or with police, to let us know he is alright.”
