COPS have appealed for help in tracing relatives after a Rutherglen man died in a Glasgow hospital.

Brian Quay, 69, died in the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Glasgow last Wednesday. There are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death.

Despite a number of enquiries, officers have been unable to trace any of Brian’s relatives.

A Police Scotland spokesman said: "We believe he has always lived in the Rutherglen area, however, may have a relative in Canada.

"Anyone who has knowledge of Brian Quay’s relatives is asked to contact Constable Kate Hamilton at the Administration department at Motherwell Police Office on 01698 483044."
