Nicola Bulley cops seal off roads close to where missing mum disappeared | The Sun
POLICE have sealed off roads close to the river where Nicola Bulley vanished over three weeks ago.
Nicola, 45, was last seen in St Michael’s on Wyre, Lancashire, at around 9.15am on January 27.
Since there has been no trace of the mum-of-two, with police working towards the theory she fell in the river.
Officers today closed off an area close to the spot where Nicola was last seen.
It is not yet clear why the police action has been taken or if it is to do with Nicola's disappearance.
The development comes amid growing criticism of Lancashire Police's handling of the investigation.
In a press conference on Wednesday, officers revealed Nicola was classed as high risk due to "specific vulnerabilities".
They later said Nicola had been struggling with alcohol issues and the menopause and had stopped taking HRT medication.
The police confirmed this week the "main working hypothesis" remains that Nicola fell in the river.
They revealed two other theories for her disappearance -Nicola leaving the area voluntarily and third party involvement.

But Detective Superintendent Rebecca Smith said: "There is not a single piece of information or evidence to suggest there is any third-party involvement."
There is also nothing to suggest Nicola left the field voluntarily.
The nation has been gripped by Nicola's disappearance after her mobile was found on a bench still connected to a work conference call.
Nicola’s pet springer spaniel Willow was also found – but there was no trace of the mum-of-two.
Her partner Paul Ansell believes "something happened" on the day she disappeared as people do not just "vanish into thin air".
Nicola has been described as white, 5ft 3ins tall with light-brown shoulder-length hair.
She was last seen wearing an ankle-length black quilted gilet jacket with a black Engelbert Strauss waist-length coat underneath and black tight-fitting jeans.
She had long green walking socks tucked into her jeans, ankle-length green Next wellies, a necklace and a pale blue Fitbit on.
Nicola has an Essex accent and links to the Thornton-Cleveleys area near Blackpool.
