A large police search is under way to find a missing 21-year-old woman who disappeared in Hull on Thursday night.
Humberside police have deployed 70 officers to find Libby Squire, a student at the University of Hull. Officers are speaking to her friends and visiting pubs and clubs in the area.
A second search party has been organised by fellow students, who will go out and look for Squire on Saturday afternoon.
Squire was reported missing after she got into a taxi outside the Welly club in Hull at about 11pm on Thursday. She was last seen on CCTV on Beverley Road, close to the junction with Hayworth Street, at about 11.45pm. From there, she could have walked in either direction along Beverley Road or Hayworth Street.
Supt Simon Gawthorpe of Humberside police said: “Officers are out again today searching and we are hoping that Libby will turn up safe and well. I urge anyone who knows anything about her whereabouts to come forward and speak to us.
“People have asked what they can do to help. We continue to ask those living in that area to check their gardens and outbuildings in case Libby has taken shelter, and if anyone was driving around the area between 11pm Thursday night and 3am Friday morning and has dashcam footage, please come forward by contacting 101.
“We are supporting Libby’s family, who have described her as a very thoughtful and caring young woman who puts others before herself. They say that this is very out of character.”
Squire is described as being 5ft 7in, with shoulder-length brown hair. She was last seen wearing a black long-sleeved top, a leather jacket and a black denim skirt with lace.
