Dog walker murder reconstruction | Dog walker murder reconstruction |
(about 4 hours later) | |
Police have reconstructed the last known movements of a 24-year-old murdered hairdresser, a week after she went missing. | |
Kelly Hyde left her car at Brynteg Garage in Tycroes, Carmarthenshire, for repairs and set out to walk home with her dog Scrappy last Thursday. | |
Her body was found in woodland off a bridle path in Pantyffynnon near Ammanford on Sunday. | |
A woman dressed like her and walking Scrappy recreated the journey. | |
Supt Alun Harries, of Dyfed-Powys Police, said: "Kelly was much loved by her family and friends and we hope today's reconstruction will encourage people to come forward and piece together her last few hours. | |
"I'm appealing for anyone who has any information regarding Kelly's murder to contact us. | |
I would rather be told a piece of information 100 times than to miss something that could be key to our investigation Supt Alun Harries | |
"It does not matter how insignificant you may feel that information is. | |
"I would rather be told a piece of information 100 times than to miss something that could be key to our investigation." | |
Before setting off police and journalists held a minute's silence for Kelly at the garage forecourt. | |
Jigsaw | |
Supt Harries said a 16-year-old boy remained in custody in connection with the investigation. | |
He said police had yet to recover any weapon and forensic examinations were continuing. | |
"We've had a lot of very good information from the local community and one of the reasons we are here today is to reconstruct Kelly's last movements with a view to just reminding people we are very much still looking for any bit of information whatsoever for the final part of the jigsaw." | |
In a statement released by her family earlier this week, Ms Hyde, who worked as a trainee hairdresser in Llanelli, was described as a "wonderful warm, sensitive and creative girl with a vibrant personality". | |
They said she was "a lover of life and made every effort to live life to the full". | |
Ms Hyde, who moved to south Wales with her family when she was a baby, had recently moved out of the family home to share a flat with friends in New Road, Ammanford. | Ms Hyde, who moved to south Wales with her family when she was a baby, had recently moved out of the family home to share a flat with friends in New Road, Ammanford. |
