Nicola Bulley police address five key theories in investigation and debunk 'persistent myths'

Police investigating the disappearance of Nicola Bulley have addressed a number of "rumours" that have been circulating concerning the missing mum as the third week of the search continues.

Mum-of-two Nicola was last seen on the morning of Friday, January 27, where she vanished while out on a walk with her dog Willow after dropping her two daughters off at school. Police have now scoured "hundreds of hours" of CCTV and dashcam footage, as well as speaking to numerous witnesses and reviewing information sent in by the public in the hope of finding the missing mortgage advisor.

Giving a press conference on Wednesday, Lancashire Police reiterated that it remains their "main working hypothesis" that Nicola has gone into the river, but stressed that they are keeping an open mind about what could have happened to the missing 45-year-old as investigations continue. Detective Superintendent Rebecca Smith addressed a number of "persistent myths" that have arisen around Nicola's disappearance.
