A second eyewitness reported seeing a red vehicle in the area of Nicola Bulley’s disappearance that was “shabby and strange.”
The mother-of-walking two’s path was allegedly near where the car was seen the morning she vanished.
A few yards from the school where the 45-year-old had dropped off her small children on January 27 it was then reportedly observed parked in a lane.
Despite thorough investigations of the water over the last week, Lancashire Police is still pursuing the assumption that Ms. Bulley fell in the River Wyre.
The police is reportedly taking new information into consideration now that many people have come forward about the vehicle sighting.
The van was described to the Sun by a guy in his 50s as a high-sided Renault or Transit in faded red.
The witness described the van as an older, scruffy type that was suitable for living or working in.
It was located on a peaceful path next to a barn and a few scattered dwellings.
Of course, I have no idea whether this vehicle had anything to do with Nicola’s disappearance. I just knew that something caught my eye. I was obligated to report it to the police.
According to reports, a second guy saw the car and called the police.
Two weeks after Ms. Bulley’s disappearance, friends will assemble for another roadside appeal.
In order to “bring Nikki home,” members of the neighborhood will gather along the road in the Lancashire hamlet of St. Michael’s on Wyre with banners and posters bearing her picture.
Emma White, a friend, said on Friday on BBC Radio 4’s Today program: “The local community are coming out again today to just raise that profile, trying to jog anybody’s memory, dashcam footage of Garstang Road, which is just outside of the village of St Michael’s on Wyre, just by the bridge that you go over.”
It is a significant portion of the settlement, so residents would remember crossing it. Have they noticed anything?
We have banners, placards with Nikki’s face on them, and an eight-foot-tall moving LED board with the words “Bring Nikki home” that moves.
We just need Nikki to return home because her two adorable little daughters require their mother.
The police search has now turned from the area where Ms. Bulley disappeared to farther downstream, in the direction of Morecambe Bay, where the River Wyre drains into the Irish Sea.
On Thursday, a dinghy with two officers on board was observed on the water, and an orange rescue boat was seen doing river sweeps at Knott End-on-Sea, at the end of the bay, around 10 miles from where the mortgage adviser’s phone was discovered on a bench still in use for business purposes.
The search, according to Ms. White, was “like torture.”
She said on the Today show that it is “simply a rollercoaster, it is almost like torture” since everyone has joined together and is working so hard, including the police, the community, and the people on the ground.
We just need anything—any piece of information—that might point us in the direction of a new line of research because people anticipate rewards for their efforts.
Any claims that Ms. Bulley is a victim of crime have been refuted by Lancashire Police, who also claim that the size of the missing person investigation, which involves 40 investigators and 500 lines of enquiry, is “unprecedented.”
Police divers and underwater search specialists have undertaken many searches of the ‘hot-spot’ region next to the bench, which is thought to be the ‘entry point’ where Ms. Bulley entered the water.
However, despite assistance from Peter Faulding of Specialist Group International and a three-day search earlier this week, Ms. Bulley’s family was unable to locate her.
Ms. Bulley was not in the area of the river that his crew and police divers investigated, according to Mr. Faulding’s searches, although he characterized himself as “baffled” after concluding his unsuccessful search.
Paul Ansell, Ms. Bulley’s spouse, has characterized the family’s situation as a “perpetual agony” as they wait for word, with her girls asking, “Where’s mummy?”
Police were granted more authority to disperse unruly gatherings in the community since there were allegations of visitors recording local properties for social media.
Officers will be able to disperse anybody engaging in anti-social behavior under the 48-hour-long order.
Officers had earlier issued a warning to the public not to “take the law into their own hands” by searching vacant or abandoned riverbank homes.
