Helicopter hunt for missing woman

Posted on December 20, 2006

A police helicopter took to the skies over Eaton Bray on Saturday morning as officers tried to find a missing woman.

The woman - who has not been named - vanished from an address in Luton on Wednesday.

When a handbag containing her identification was found in Eaton Bray, police began to fear that she was at risk, so the helicopter was sent up shortly after 10am to try to locate her.

A police spokeswoman confirmed that while the helicopter was in the air, the missing woman was located in Luton.
