Man who says he found Nicola Bulley's body describes reporting it to police

A man says he is the person who found Nicola Bulley in the river, a mile away from where she vanished more than three weeks ago. Lancashire Police were called to the river just before midday on Sunday and on Monday they confirmed that a body found at the location was that of the missing mum of two.

Jason Dean Rothwell, who describes himself as a psychic medium and tarot card reader, says he is the man who found Nicola, reports The Mirror. In a statement in Facebook, he wrote: "Yes it is myself in the images in the media currently circulating relating to the case of Nicola Bulley and yes yesterday [Sunday] morning it was myself and a friend who reported and assisted the police in the recovery of a body from the river Wyre."

He added: "I would also like to just say a huge thank you to Lancashire police for their help, support and the open mindedness with which they dealt with us, following our call, spiritualists or mediums are obviously not something the police come across every day and I appreciate the respect given to us both.
