Divers search river where Nicola Bulley’s body was found

Specialist cops were looking in an area less than a mile from where Ms Bulley was last seen in St Michael’s on the Wyre, Lancashire as they are reportedly trying to confirm the cause of her death. Lancashire Police confirmed in a brief statement they are “carrying out some work” on request from the HM Coroner. 

The mortgage adviser vanished while walking her dog by the river on January 27.

Her disappearance sparked a frantic hunt, which resulted in her body being found on February 19.

An inquest into her death will be heard on June 26 at County Hall in Preston. 

A spokesman for HM Coroner told Lancashire Post: “The investigation will take time to complete to ensure that as complete a picture as possible of the facts concerning Ms Bulley’s death is presented at the inquest.

“This will assist the family in understanding what occurred.

“As part of this process, HM Senior Coroner has requested Lancashire Constabulary produce information gathered during the search for Ms Bulley so it can be considered as part of the investigation.”

A police spokesperson added: “We can confirm this is us carrying out some work at the direction of HM Coroner.”
