Lancashire Police’s search teams which includes dogs and drones have been involved, as has the police’s North West Underwater Search and Marine Unit, specialist water rescue personnel and dogs from Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service, together with Lancaster Area Search and Rescue and the National Police Air Service.

Police say they know that people are rightly concerned about Daniel’s wellbeing and anxious to find him as quickly as possible.

“However, we ask that members of the public don’t put themselves at risk by attempting to make searches near the river – it is a dangerous place because of the flow and level of the water,” they added.

Anyone with information about Daniel and where he might be, please contact 101 – quoting log 0250 of December 12, 2022.
