Has there been any reports on why the landrover was in the reapir shop?. I am just wondering why it has the brown paper over the bumper.

Done a up to date map with all the relevan places. Googled car repair shope in the town and this was the only one.

The garage is where they located the vehicle, correct? There were tire tracks by the river, but the vehicle was not there. If he was walking back toward the garage from the river and was wearing waterproof leggings/pants, then he must have left the car at the garage and walked to the river for..... what? Obviously, to do something in the water. If he had already placed April's body in the river, that would explain the tire tracks. Maybe he went back to discard evidence like clothing, weapons, etc. Oh this is just heart breaking!!! I want her to be found safe somewhere, but I fear that it is gut-wrenchingly apparent that this is not going to end well. Her Mother's plea will haunt me forever.

The way the are describing it, is just wet weather trousers.

What we dont know is when the landrover was put into the garage. If it was monday night or tuesday morning then he wouldnt be walking back to it as he was not arrested until tuesday afternoon.

How would he have gotten down to the river? Where was he living at the time? I haven't seen that clearly stated.

Good question, the only adress I can find is 2002. According to the media he has moved many times.

Looking at the map, which UK girl has kindly provided, it would seem that the road back from the river goes past the repair shop.
So could be he drove to the river, the place where they have found the tyre tracks, then drove back towards town, dropped the car at the repair shop, and then continued on foot for the rest of the short walk into the town itself

Possible, but there is some confusion. On sky news it showed the vehicle was recovered on the road. I always believed that it was found in a vehicle repair shop. This all depends on what time according to the owner of the garage what time it was dropped off there. certainly a possibility, but remember MB was not arrested until 3.30pm tuesday afternoon.

I am sure something was said ( will have to go back and re read ) to the effect that there are 2 vehicles being talked about.

Initial reports said that April got into a grey or light coloured van ...... and I have also read about a light coloured van being recovered on the road, close to a bridge ?

But the Land Rover belonging to MB was definately found in the car repair shop


Updating to say that reports now seem to be saying a light coloured van which could be a Land Rover ? so does sound as though there is only one car being talked about and this is the one that was found in the repair shop

Its waders(like an extended wellington boot) you use for fishing Nurse,and waterproof trousers for walking/hiking/camping.

Yeah i read something similar Alyce,i was going to say that maybe he got the van stuck somewhere and had to pull it out with the landrover?.

 

[ScotsPaddy]

If he was found North of the bridge walking back into town then thats walking towards the car repair shop isnt it?.

 

[ScotsPaddy]

I got an uneasy feeling the way the kayakers keep looking towards the news crew(im on sky news)..

 

[ScotsPaddy]

Sorry for prattling on but if they keep talking that she may be alive im presuming hes said she either went in the water alive or that he left her alive?..

Det Supt Reg Bevan, who is leading the inquiry, said

The Land Rover Discovery was recovered from a repair garage in the Old Station Road area of Machynlleth on Tuesday afternoon
...
Mr Bridger was arrested at 15:30 BST while walking along the A487 main road north out of Machynlleth

Thanks Clio.

His 24 hours are almost up, I wonder if he will be released, charged or will they get an extension?

Yes exactly. I just wonder if the two times of the vehicle being placed, not found in the repair shop and MB walking back are tallying. It would work if there was a few hours gap, but they are not saying.

Just understood that he was walking out of village. This would tie is brilliantly
