“Key points made in police press conference
Chief Superintendant Phil Ward has delivered an update during a press briefing at the bench in Beverley Road, where Libby was last seen.

Here are a few of the key points he made:

  • While the investigation has been treated as a missing person inquiry, police have always and will continue to keep an open mind as to the circumstances surrounding Libby’s disappearance
  • Extensive land and house searches carried out in the areas she was last seen, with numerous house to house enquiries made and people spoken to
  • CCTV footage has been obtained to try and trace Libby’s movements that night
  • These enquiries have not provided confirmation as to Libby’s whereabouts or to her safety, but have shaped a more precise and exact timeline of her movements
  • Libby arrived on Wellesley Avenue, her home address, around 11.29pm, although it’s not believed she entered the property
  • On searching the address, police did discover her mobile phone which despite analysis, has not provided any further insight as to where she may be or her movements that night
  • She is then seen on CCTV on Beverley Road at 11.40pm, and seen near to a bench close to the bus stop and junction with Haworth Street, when a motorist stops and offers her help
  • She may have been in this area until around 12.09am, and police are now continuing searches in and around the neighbouring roads and streets as well as viewing further CCTV footage
  • Her location is still unknown but this does not mean she has come to harm
  • Police are continuing to explore all possibilities
  • Tools and a lip gloss were recovered yesterday in the area Libby was last seen. These items are not connected to this investigation and at this time there isn’t any link
  • Information is still needed - please call 101, quoting log number 29 of 1 February 2019, if you have any”

“Over the last four days we have carried out extensive land and house searches in the areas she was last seen, with numerous house to house enquiries made and people spoken to, in an attempt to find Libby or information as to where she may be.

“We have also obtained and viewed hours of CCTV footage to try and trace Libby’s movements that night, and to identify anyone in the area who may be of interest to the investigation.

“In addition, we have received numerous calls from members of the public with information, assistance from students at the university carrying out searches within the uni and witnesses coming forward to help with the investigation.

“I want to offer my utmost thanks to everyone as your help has truly been invaluable, as well as the local community who have been incredibly helpful and understanding while our teams have been carrying out their work in their neighbourhood.

“While these enquiries have not provided confirmation as to Libby’s whereabouts or to her safety, it has shaped a more precise and exact timeline of her movements.

“We now know Libby arrived on Wellesley Avenue, her home address, around 11.29pm, although it’s not believed she entered the property. On searching the address, we did discover her mobile phone which despite analysis, has not provided any further insight as to where she may be or her movements that night.

“She is then seen on CCTV on Beverley Road at 11.40pm, and seen near to a bench close to the bus stop and junction with Haworth Street, when a motorist stops and offers her help.

“We believe she may have been in this area until around 12.09am, and are now continuing searches in and around the neighbouring roads and streets as well as viewing further CCTV footage.

“While her location is not yet known, this does not mean she has come to harm, but we must carry out a thorough investigation and explore all possibilities.

“We are continuing to support Libby’s parents, who understandably are distressed and anxious as to the safety of their daughter. They are our priority and we will ensure they receive all the support from us they need and we would please ask their privacy is respected as the investigation continues.

“There have been unrelated incidents and rumours circulating I would like to clarify.

“Tools and a lip gloss were recovered yesterday in the area Libby was last seen. These items are not connected to this investigation and at this time there isn’t any link.

“There has also been speculation around a car purporting to be a taxi driving around the area. Again, this is not part of the investigation and there have been no reports made to police of this nature.

“I would continue to ask people to please come forward with any information they have, no matter how insignificant or small they feel it may be. It could prove to be vital to the investigation and in finding Libby.

“There are additional officers on patrol in the areas who you can pass any information on to, or provide them with details you have, or please call us on 101, quoting log number 29 of 1 February 2019.”
