3/12 – Callout in the Deeside area – Further Update
Update – 22/1/12:
On Friday 20/1/12, the team was contacted by North Wales Police who asked us to come out to search a number of areas close to where Michael’s vehicle was found.
On Saturday 21st, we were joined by colleagues from Sarda Wales and searched the identified areas. As we were running the NWMRA Casualty Care course at our base this weekend, our colleagues at Cheshire SAR were also placed on standby but stood down on Saturday morning as we had enough team members.
The team’s involvement has now finished but we remain available to search again if required by North Wales Police.
