A forensic expert has claimed that if Nicola Bulley was in the river then she would had to have been "shoved really hard".
Peter Faulding, who led a private underwater search team as he joined the search for the mum-of-two last week, left the village following three days of searching several miles of the River Wyre, where it was thought Bulley may be.
However, Faulding has now launched his own search operation which he has called “low-key” and has claimed to have spoken to Bulley’s family about the possibility of "deposition sites". This is a place where someone has been buried.
