I think there's two viable theories about what happened to #NicolaBulley. 1) Most likely is that she slipped and fell into the river, suffered from cold water shock, and drowned. Her body has been carried along the Wyre towards the Irish Sea. She could have left her phone on the work call while going to retrieve her dog in difficulty from the water, or its toy. The dog's harness and lead were taken off because the dog is a springer spaniel and likes to swim, so it wouldn't be uncomfortable later
