River search for dog walker
DOG walker Nicola Bulley who seemingly disappeared into thin air days ago is now thought to have fallen into the river according to an update from police.
According to the police, an extensive search of the area along the River Wyre had not resulted in Bulley being found, which they now believe may be because she fell into the river. A search of the river started on Friday, February 3 a week after she disappeared.
Friends have retraced the route taken by Bulley but that has not yielded results either. Police searches found her springer spaniel running loose, as well as her mobile which had been left on a bench.
The 45yearold’s partner had said earlier that he will “never lose hope.”
Paul Ansell told a news source that he kept playing “every scenario” in his head “around and around” but that his focus had to be supporting their two young daughters.”
Ansell continued: “We’re never, ever going to lose hope, of course we’re not, but it is as though she has vanished into thin air.”
Bulley, a mortgage adviser, dropped her six and nineyearold daughters at school, shortly before taking the dog for a walk. She has never been seen since.
