The missing mother who disappeared while walking her dog had shared eerie posts about her route.
45-year-old Nicola Bulley, who has been missing since January 27, was last spotted walking her brown cocker spaniel dog Willow near the River Wyre in St. Michael’s in Lancashire.
The dog was found alone by a passerby who recognized the pooch and immediately called police.
During the search, Bulley’s phone was discovered on a bench near the spot where she was last seen. The device was still connected to an active conference call.
But weeks before she disappeared, she had shared a post about the ‘spooky’ route on social media.
Posting a series of photos, she wrote: “A very foggy cold walk this morning, not a day to forget your gloves! Bit spooky too! Set me up for the day though and Willow had the best time!”
Superintendent Sally Riley from Lancashire Police told the Mirror that Bulley’s mobile phone was still on an active call when it was found.
“It was on a meeting call, and that was still live. It was connected to the conference call and that hadn’t been terminated,” she said.
In a press conference, police have appealed for any information that may help in searching for the mother of two.
“The police are keeping a really open mind about what could have happened but we do believe that the likelihood is that Nicola has gone missing and this is not a crime inquiry,” the police said.
“We’ve mounted a really intensive operation to try to find Nicola. We’ve got a large area to search. People do go missing but, clearly, as time goes on we become more and more concerned for Nicola,” the statement continued.
“But we’re very much hoping that we will find something to try to bring her home safe and well soon.
“We appeal for anyone who may have been driving through the village of St Michael’s last Friday morning at about 9:15 AM or who may have dashcam footage that could be of use to us, or people who may have been dog-walking in the area or on the towpath, to come forward.”
