The mother of a missing man says she is heartbroken after he was found dead in Perth.
Police discovered the body of William Stevenson, 32, on Tuesday night.
Mr Stevenson, who also uses the surname McQuade, was found dead in a flat in Scott Street, Perth.
William, who is originally from Glasgow, was last known to have visited a friend in the Tulloch area of Perth on Thursday.
His mum, Jacqui, had previously issued an appeal to find her son as he had not been in touch with her for over a week.
‘He was my world’
She said: “I’m broken.
“He was my world, everybody knows that.
“He would phone me and I would come running.
“After the appeal, the support I’ve received has been overwhelming. I couldn’t turn my phone off.
“He meant a lot to a lot of people.
“I’m absolutely heartbroken, my boy was my life.”
Inquires into death at early stage
Jacqui says she became aware that her son may be missing when she was told he had not collected money sent to a bank account for him over the weekend.
A spokesperson for Police Scotland said: “On the evening of Tuesday a 32-year-old man was found dead within in a flat in Scott Street, Perth.
