Kind-hearted volunteer water search teams have offered a hand in the ongoing efforts to trace missing Salford grandad Peter Baglin. The 55-year-old, from Boothstown, vanished nine weeks ago after going out for an evening walk on December 28. He was last seen on CCTV cameras in a local petrol station, on the East Lancashire Road, buying a small bottle of whiskey.
Since Peter's sudden disappearance, police and the local community have undertaken huge search operations, including in the Bridgewater Canal and woodland near his home and much further afield. To this date, there have still been no confirmed sightings or leads, leaving his heartbroken wife Michelle and family in turmoil.
And as was seen in the case of tragic mum Nicola Bulley, who went missing in Lancashire before her body was pulled from the River Wyre, self-proclaimed 'social media detectives' have emerged, sharing their own views on what they believe may have happened to Peter in Youtube videos and comments.
