Police are urgently searching for a missing mother who vanished three days ago – with divers now scouring a river.
Victoria Taylor, 34, was last seen at an address in Malton, North Yorkshire, at 9am on Monday.
In a desperate appeal for the public to her, her sister wrote on social media: ‘My beautiful sister, please come home, Vicki.’
Ms Taylor is described as white, approximately 5ft 6in in height.
She was last seen wearing blue jeans, a black Adidas original puffa jacket with white stripes down the sleeves and a grey Jack Wills hooded jumper.
