Body found in search for missing man

'Strongly believed' to be Lee Scott

Police have confirmed a body has been found in the search for a missing Douglas man.

It was recovered from Douglas Harbour earlier today (13 November) following a search by specialist personnel.

Whilst the police have yet to formally identify the man it's 'strongly believed' to be Lee Scott.

Officers had been searching for the 46-year-old after he was last seen in the Douglas area at around 9.40am on Friday (8 November). 

The Isle of Man Constabulary says it will continue to support Lee’s family members and enquiries into the circumstances of his disappearance will continue. 

Members of the public have been thanked for their assistance with the search for Lee over the last few days and have been asked to respect the family’s privacy and refrain from any further speculation.
