Police have concluded the "active inquiry" into the disappearance of a teenager from a house in Fife 28 years ago.

Kenneth Jones was last seen at his family home in Ancrum Court, Glenrothes, at about 22:30 on 2 November 1998.

Police Scotland's major investigation team launched a reinvestigation into his disappearance in 2024 and used radar to search the property's garden earlier this year.

However, officers said they were "assessing material" as part of a review of the case after ending the probe.

Kenneth was 18 at the time of his disappearance and would now be 46.

He was described as white, 6ft 2in, with short, dark brown hair and when he went missing was wearing a black leather zip-up jacket, black jeans, and yellow and green trainers.

He is thought to have left home at about 07:30 on 3 November 1998 but was not reported missing until the following day.

An extensive search was launched, but he has never been found.

Officers relaunched the probe two years ago in a bid to bring closure to "unanswered questions" around the case.

That involved a new appeal for information.

Detectives returned to the family home in February with a "ground-penetrating radar" (GPR) device which allowed them to map the ground underneath the garden using electromagnetic waves.

Officers also visited in April to dig up the patio after the scan revealed an "anomaly" but nothing significant was found.

No-one has ever been arrested in connection with the disappearance.

Police Scotland said the probe was at its end point, but asked anyone with information on Kenneth's whereabouts to contact them.

Det Insp Jonathan Pleasance said: "We remain committed to establishing the full circumstances of what happened to Kenneth.

"Our active inquiry has now concluded, and we are assessing material gathered during the review of the case."

He added: "Kenneth's family has been updated."
