A MAJOR emergency response was launched in Quarrier's Village following reports a car was in the water.
It was later confirmed that the alert on Tuesday afternoon was linked to the search for missing man David Letham from Paisley and a body was found in woods near Bridge of Weir.
A Police Scotland spokesman added: "Although formal identification has still to take place, the family of David Letham has been informed.
"Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances of what happened but the death is not believed to be suspicious."
