Police have released details on all the clothing and accessories they are looking for as part of the search for a missing mum.
Nicola Bulley disappeared last Friday while she was walking her pet dog Willow next to the River Wyre in St Michael's, Lancashire. While the mum-of-two's phone and springer spaniel were found near a bench close to the river, there was no sign of her.
Superintendent Sally Riley of Lancashire Police held a press conference today in the village of St Michael's in order to provide more information on the search. During the conference, she informed the press of a list of clothing and accessories police are searching for.
She told a press conference: “I do have an update on the clothing that Nicola was last seen wearing, and this is something that the public who live in the area, or who walk their dogs on the river path near to St Michael’s or downstream of St Michael’s towards Morecambe Bay, can look out for.
“They are an ankle-length black quilted gilet jacket, a black Engelbert Strauss waist-length coat which was worn underneath the gilet, tight-fitting black jeans, long green walking socks tucked into her jeans, ankle-length green Next wellies, a necklace and a pale blue Fitbit.
“It’s really important that the public pay heed to those very specific clothing descriptions please because factual sightings of those items would be very useful to us.”
She added: “I would also appeal to the public to keep themselves safe in this inquiry. People going out at night in the darkness could fall into the river and face other hazards.
“Likewise, if they go out in boats on the river, please only do so if you’ve got experience in that.”
