Murder enquiry continues as body found near Chesterfield
Officers attended a layby off the A617 near the M1
Just after 12am this morning (Monday 26 June) police attended a layby off the westbound carriageway of the A617, close to junction 29 of the M1, where a body believed to be Sarah was discovered.
Her family have been made aware, and are being supported by specialist officers.
The discovery comes after a murder investigation was launched following a report on Friday 23 June that Sarah had not been seen since 9pm on Tuesday 20 June at her home in Norman Street, Ilkeston.
A man who was arrested on suspicion of the 31-year-old’s murder remains in police custody and a warrant of further detention has been authorised giving officers more time to question him.
Officers remain keen to speak to anyone who may have CCTV or dashcam footage of a blue Ford Transit van, registration beginning YP16, in the early hours of Wednesday 21 June around the area of J29 of the M1 and the A617 towards Chesterfield.
