Nicola Bulley latest: Police believe missing dog walker fell into river

Nicola Bulley’s partner Paul Ansell speaks out.

Police investigating the disappearance of missing mother-of-two Nicola Bulley said their “main working hypothesis” is that she fell into the River Wyre.

Giving an update on the search for the missing dog walker at a press conference, Superintendent Sally Riley said the case “is not suspicious but a tragic case of a missing person”.

She said: “We believe that Nicola was in the riverside area and remained at the riverside area. We remain open to any inquiries that might lead us to question that, but at this time we understand that she was by the river.

“Our main working hypothesis therefore is that Nicola has sadly fallen into the river, that there is no third party or criminal involvement and that this is not suspicious, but a tragic case of a missing person.”

Her partner Paul Ansell told Sky News earlier today that he can’t get his head around what has happened. He said: “It’s like a dream, I can’t get my head around any of it. Every single scenario comes to a brick wall, all we’re doing is going around and around.”

Police believe missing dog walker Nicola Bulley fell into River Wyre

Missing dog walker Nicola Bulley probably suddenly fell into the river when she vanished, detectives say – and they do not believe there was any criminal involvement.

Lancashire Police said their main hypothesis was that the mother of two fell in during a 10-minute window after the last known sighting of her.

After tracing local CCTV, dashcam and doorbell camera footage, police are confident Ms Bulley did not leave the area near the river.
