Nicola Bulley still missing: Everything we know about the case so far, three weeks later

It has now been three weeks since mum-of-two Nicola Bulley vanished while walking her dog in a small Lancashire village. And despite an exhaustive search and thousands of pieces of evidence analysed by police, no major clue that could hold the answers to what happened to the 45-year-old has been found.

Nicola disappeared on the morning of Friday, January 27 as she walked her dog by the River Wyre in the village of St Michael’s after dropping off her two young daughters at the nearby primary school. Police have maintained  their “main working hypothesis” is that she fell in the river, but specialist underwater diving teams found no trace of her after scouring the water despite the search being extended all the way out to sea.
