Police Cordon Car Park

Police have cordoned off a car park near to where missing mother-of-two Nicola Bulley disappeared.

It was announced today that the cordon is part of an enquiry into a suspicious vehicle that may be lined to the disappearance of Nicola Bulley.

Disappearance Details

Ms Bulley, a mother-of-two, went missing while she was out walking her dog Willow near her home in Chorlton, Manchester.

She was last seen around 6.30pm that evening, dressed appropriately for the cold weather.

So far, police have established that Willow’s harness was found on the ground, although the dog itself was found later and was “bone dry” with no signs of being in the water.

They have also located Ms Bulley’s phone, which was found connected to an active conference call – with colleagues from her firm, Exclusively Mortgages.

At the time of Nicola’s disappearance, her partner was at home and, after hearing about her disappearance, rushed to the scene.

Ms Bulley is believed to have been walking along a 200-yard stretch of pavement on a busy A-Road at the time of her disappearance.

Investigation Details

Police have no evidence to suggest Ms Bulley entered the river, although certain parts of the riverbank have been described as “treacherous”.

Family members have spoken of Nicola being in “very upbeat” spirits, happily planning activities with her family when she vanished.

The “abandoned house” near the riverbank which sparked speculation of Nicola having gone inside was found to not be abandoned and no trace of her was found there.

Since then, police divers and underwater drones have been deployed to conduct an “arc search” to comb the riverbed and search for any signs of Nicola. However, the river is said to be muddy and visibility is poor.

Family Appeal

Ms Bulley’s family remain hopeful that she has not “vanished into thin air”, and urge anyone with any knowledge of her whereabouts to come forward.

No further information has been released regarding Nicola Bulley or the suspicious vehicle under investigation in the car park.
