Specialist dive company boss looking for missing Nicola Bulley speaks out
Police may be searching for a “tatty red van” after a local resident noticed the vehicle parked in the village on the morning Nicola Bulley went missing.
The 55-year-old witness, who has not been named, said they saw “tatty red van in Hall Lane outside a barn”.
“I didn’t think anything at the time, but when I saw Nicola had gone missing, I called 101 and spoke to an operator,” he told The Times.
The witness said they contacted the police again and said the van could have been a Renault, adding it was the “sort of van you can live in”.
A second witness told The Sun that they had reported seeing a red van which “looked suspicious” at around 9.40am on the day Ms Bulley disappeared.
The man called the police three days after the mum-of-two went missing and was asked if he had any dashcam footage of the vehicle.
It comes as the search has now reached the mouth of the river, near Fleetwood, with police looking along the western coast and into the Irish Sea and Morecambe Bay.
