Worries are increasing for a missing mum in North Yorkshire who disappeared early Monday morning.
The search for Victoria Taylor, 34, is entering its fourth night after she was last seen at an address in Norton around 9am on Monday.
According to local residents, it’s believed Victoria left her home and was seen in Commercial Street, Norton, heading towards Norton Hive Library.
She was spotted on CCTV buying a soft drink in the Marks and Spencer store at the BP Garage on Welham Road, Norton, at around 11:35am.
Since then her family, friends, and the local community have rallied to try to bring her home.
Specialist divers have also been carrying searches of the River Derwent.
A North Yorkshire Police spokesman said ‘a number of personal possessions belonging to Victoria’ had been found close to the river.
In a post to The ‘Search for Victoria Taylor’ Facebook page, friend Charlotte Cundill said: ‘Day 4 searching for Victoria Taylor, We will not give up on you and your family Vixx Anne.
‘The majority of Malton and several other areas are searching for you!!! I’m praying and hoping each and every day to hear good news.
‘Please everyone, carry on going to the lengths you are to bring my beautiful friend and neighbour home to her gorgeous family!! Please go so careful in the process it’s looking like another wet day. Let’s bring her home.’
Victoria is described as being 5ft 6in tall and was last seen wearing blue jeans, a black Adidas original puffer jacket with white stripes down the sleeves and a grey Jack Wills hooded jumper.
Inspector Leanne Anderson said yesterday: ‘There are a range of enquiries taking place to try and locate Victoria. This is still a missing person enquiry, and the focus of our activity is within the Malton / Norton area.
‘Extensive searches will take place today and I would urge members of the public in the Malton / Norton areas to remain vigilant and report sightings or pass information to police immediately.’
