Man held over Claudia Lawrence death | Man held over Claudia Lawrence death |
(35 minutes later) | |
A 59-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murdering missing chef Claudia Lawrence. | |
Miss Lawrence, who was 35 when she disappeared from her home in York in 2009, has not been found, North Yorkshire Police said. | |
A force spokesman said forensic examinations were being conducted and were expected to continue for several days. | |
Police said a car was seized and further arrests could not be ruled out. | |
Miss Lawrence, who lived in Heworth, worked at the University of York and had been due to start a shift at 06:00 on 19 March but failed to turn up. | |
She was reported missing by her father the following day. | |
Extensive searches of the area were made but she was not found and police have since treated her disappearance as murder. | |
North Yorkshire Police launched a review of the case last year and have carried out new forensic work and searches of Miss Lawrence's home. | |
A fresh appeal for information was made on the fifth anniversary of her disappearance in March, which was broadcast on the BBC's Crimewatch programme. | |
Police revealed several new lines of inquiry generated by the review of the case and fresh examination of her home. |
