Police have launched an urgent hunt for a missing woman who was last seen wearing exercise gear in the early hours of the morning at a petrol station.
CCTV shows Rachel Booth, 38, walking around Sandiway Garage, in the Northwich area of Cheshire, at 3.50am on Saturday July 19.
Officers are currently searching a popular Cheshire beauty spot in Oakmere, while nearby water park Wild Shore Delamare has also been shut down despite the company insisting the incident is ‘unrelated’ to them.
Rachel is described as being 5ft 9in tall, of a slim build and with blonde hair.
CCTV shows her wearing black leggings, a black vest and trainers at the time she vanished, with a phone visible on her outer thigh, suggesting she could have been on a run.
Inspector James Wilson, of Cheshire Constabulary, said: ‘We are currently conducting a number of enquiries to trace Rachel and we are becoming increasingly concerned for her welfare.
‘Anyone who has seen Rachel since she was reported missing is asked to contact us. The same goes for anyone who has any information on her whereabouts.
‘We would also like to appeal directly to Rachel to get in touch to let us know you are OK.
‘You can report information to Cheshire Police via 101 or through www.cheshire.police.uk/tell-us quoting IML-2136439.’
Wild Shore Delamere said: ‘Due to ongoing police investigations in the surrounding area, Wildshore Delamere will remain closed tomorrow, Sunday, July 20th.
‘We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
‘The incident is unrelated to Wild Shore – however, we wish to help as much as possible – so we will be closing the site until further notice.
‘If your booking is affected by this closure, please contact our customer services team.
‘We’ll be happy to arrange a refund or reschedule your session for a later date. Thank you for your understanding.’
