Missing Megan Roberts: Body Of Woman Found

Police looking for a female student who went missing in York six weeks ago have taken the body of a woman from a river.

Megan Roberts, who studied at York St John University, disappeared during a night out with friends in January.

Police believe Miss Roberts, from Wetherby, became separated from friends while drunk and fell into the Ouse near Lendal Bridge.

A pedestrian reported the sighting of a woman's body on Sunday afternoon near the Ship Inn pub in the village of Acaster Malbis, five miles south of York.

Police have not confirmed that the body is that of Miss Roberts

The 20-year-old's family has been told of the discovery.

A police spokesman said: "Formal identification has not yet been completed, therefore we cannot confirm the identity of the deceased at this stage. The family of Megan Roberts have been informed of the discovery."

Miss Roberts was last seen on CCTV on the corner of Rougier Street and Lendal Bridge at about 2.20am on January 23.

A week later her mother, Jackie Roberts, explained the disappearance of her "beautiful daughter" as "a tragic run of events with no one to blame".

Police had searched the Ouse using sonar equipment but had no success.

A Facebook page, Help Find Megan Roberts, was set up to aid the search and attracted 8,535 followers.
