An inquest into the death of Nicola Bulley will be opened today after her body was found on Sunday, more than three weeks after she went missing. Police were called to the River Wyre following reports two walkers had found a body.
Police had been trying to find the 45-year-old mum of two since she went missing on January 27. The body was formally identified as Nicola on Monday at a press conference held at Lancashire Police headquarters, reports LancsLive.
Nicola had been walking her dog in St Michael’s on Wyre after dropping her daughters, aged six and nine, at school. Her family paid tribute to the 45-year-old in a statement read by the force’s head of crime Detective Chief Superintendent Pauline Stables, where they said: “We love you, always have and always will.”
