The body of Nicola Bulley, which was pulled from the River Wyre on Sunday, was identified by her dental records.
An inquest into the death of the dog walker, from Inskip, who went missing in the village of St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire, on January 27 sparking a widespread police search, was opened at Preston Coroner’s Court this afternoon (Wednesday, February 22).
Her body was pulled from the water around a mile from where Nicola was last seen on Sunday morning after police received reports that a body had been spotted in reeds by a dog walker. It was confirmed by police to be that of the 45-year-old around 24 hours later.
