Police say there has been another sighting of a mum who went missing with her newborn baby and partner after their car broke down on the motorway. Constance Marten, who is said to have given birth 'very recently', was last seen with the baby's father, Mark Gordon, at about 6.30pm on Thursday.
Their car broke down near junction four of the M61 at Farnworth, Bolton, and the family left the motorway safely on foot. In an update yesterday, police said they believed Constance had been seen in Essex, more than 250 miles away, at about 9am at a port where ferries operate from.
Now GMP say the latest sighting came an hour later, about 20 miles away in Colchester. The new mum or her baby are not believed to have been assessed by medical professionals.
