Police pull body from river in major update
A body has been pulled from the River Wensum in the search for missing mum Gaynor Lord, Norfolk Police have said.
Divers used a black bag to remove the body from the river.
The divers removed the object from the water next to the orange buoy which had been positioned in the river on Friday.
Officers have been searching for Lord since last Friday and had said there was a “high probability” that she went into the water.
Norfolk Police said in a statement this afternoon: “Police searching for missing Norwich woman Gaynor Lord can confirm a body has been found in the River Wensum.
“While the body hasn’t formally been identified, Gaynor’s family have been informed.
“They continue to be supported by specially trained officers.”
The buoy was positioned about 100 metres down stream from where the main focus of the search for Lord took place yesterday.
Police divers with flippers could be seen ready to enter the water in a park area further along the river but after a phone call was received, their kit was packed up and personnel got back in their truck and rediverted.
