A major operation is underway near the river where Nicola Bulley went missing 23 days ago.
Divers are at the scene close to where the mum-of-two was last seen in St Michaels on Wyre, Lancashire, on January 27.
A man and a woman were earlier seen pointing to a spot in the River Wyre, while police drones and a helicopter hover overhead.

It's understood local police sealed off a nearby road after receiving a 'tip-off' shortly before noon today.
A photographer at the scene told Mirror UK: "It all happened so fast. Police have sealed all the roads off. It's fair to say a massive search is underway."
It comes more than three weeks after Ms Bulley's disappearance, which has triggered a massive investigation centred on the river which police say she may have fallen into within a "10-minute window".
The 45-year-old was last seen walking her dog by the river at about 9.10am on January 27 after dropping off her two daughters at school.
Around 20 minutes later, a member of the public came across Nicola's springer spaniel Willow wandering alone "bone dry and agitated". The mortgage adviser's phone was also found on a nearby bench.
On February 3, Lancashire Police told the public of its main hypothesis that Ms Bulley had fallen into the river between 9.10am and 9.20am on the day she disappeared.
