The search for missing nurse Victoria Taylor has taken a new turn as police now believe she may have entered the nearby River Derwent. The 34-year-old mother, also known as Vixx, disappeared from her home in Malton, North Yorkshire last Monday. Search teams have been combing the area, with a particular focus on the river, which is currently swollen due to heavy rain. This comes after some of Victoria's personal items were found along the riverbank.
Chief Superintendent Fiona Willey addressed the media at a press conference today, stating that there is no evidence of any third party involvement in Victoria's disappearance. However, based on the discovery of her belongings near the water's edge, it is highly likely that she may have entered the River Derwent. Search efforts have been intensified, with specialized sonar equipment being used to scan beneath the surface of the water. In addition, drones are being utilized to search the rural areas near where Victoria's items were found.
Search teams have been tirelessly scouring the river and banks west of Malton, as the Derwent flows towards the River Ouse before emptying into the Humber Estuary. Victoria's last known movements were captured on CCTV cameras, showing her leaving her home and making purchases at a nearby BP garage and bus station. She was wearing blue jeans, a black Adidas puffer jacket, a grey Jack Wills hoodie, a camouflage cap, and a salmon or pink Vans backpack. The footage then shows her heading towards a riverside playground, where her belongings were later found.
This has been an emotional and difficult time for Victoria's loved ones and the local community, who have rallied together in support of the ongoing search efforts. Her fiance, Matthew Grant Williams, and their daughter have been deeply affected by her sudden disappearance. In a statement, Chief Superintendent Willey mentioned that the family has been comforted by the overwhelming support and assistance from both the local community and those from further afield.
Victoria's sisters, Emma and Heidi, also expressed their gratitude for the help and resources that have been poured into the search for their sister. They shared their heartache and struggle to maintain a sense of normalcy for the children in the family during this trying time. The entire community is holding out hope for Victoria's safe return, and the search for her continues.
