Police are now searching for anglers on the river where Nicola Bulley disappeared as the investigation into the whereabouts of the missing mum continues. Officials have approached local fishing clubs requesting information on those who were on the river on the day of the disappearance.
The 45-year-old vanished without a trace during a dog walk along the River Wyre in the village of St Michael's, Lancs, on January 27. As the investigation hits the third week, detectives are looking at who had permits to fish the river around the time she went missing near its banks.
The Mirror reports that officials have previously stated their working theory is that Nicola fell into the river. However, today it emerged that local fishing clubs have been approached by officers wanting information about who was ticketed to be on the river around the time of her disappearance.
