Update on the search for missing Victoria Taylor 7th October. Police say:
We now have a further sighting of Victoria which was captured at 11.53am on the Monday (30 September) at Malton Bus Station on Railway Street. To date, this is the last confirmed sighting of Victoria.
Over the past week we have undertaken extensive enquiries. The investigation has involved the collection and review of CCTV footage and passive data research, we have searched key areas of both land and water and we have interviewed several witnesses.
We remain open minded and, whilst the investigation of Victoria’s movements has been thorough, we will continue to pursue existing and new lines of enquiry.
Based on information obtained from these exhaustive enquiries, North Yorkshire Police is satisfied at the current time that there is no information to suggest any form of third-party involvement following the disappearance of Victoria and this remains a missing person case.
On Tuesday, we recovered several personal items belonging to Victoria near to the River Derwent. This area is where we are currently focusing our search efforts and the public can expect to see continued activity in the coming days.
Inspector Martin Dennison from North Yorkshire Police said: “This is an extremely difficult time for Victoria’s family, and we are continuing to do all we can to try and find her.
“The focus of our search remains the area around the River Derwent and Victoria’s family members are aware of this and the wider strategy that is in place.
“The family and the police understand the local community wanting to show their support with the searches for Victoria, but we urge people to exercise caution when searching particularly near to the river.”
A number of personal possessions belonging to Victoria have been found close to the River Derwent.
NY Police stars: “Following this discovery, our Operation Support Unit and local officers have carried out extensive searches along with support from a police underwater search unit.
“We have used drones to search the area from above, carried out multiple enquiries and reviewed hours of CCTV from around Malton where Victoria was last seen”
Inspector Martin Dennison from North Yorkshire Police said: “We are very concerned about Victoria’s whereabouts and, like her family and friends, just want to see her safe and well.
“I would urge the public to be cautious if looking for Victoria near the river. Our officers have specialist training and equipment, and they are used to working in various terrains.
