A third man has been arrested on suspicion of murdering a woman who has been missing since February.

Katie Love, 48, from Nuneaton, was reported last seen by family on 23 February.

A 54-year-old man from the town was arrested on 26 March and bailed until June, said Warwickshire Police.

Two men, aged 48 and 49, previously detained on suspicion of murder, had been released pending further investigation, the force said.

Police have previously shared an appeal asking for information about a silver Peugeot 206, which detectives believe was linked to the disappearance.

The force said it then received a call and located the car, but the 48-year-old remained missing.

Police say she has connections to Skegness but is known across the Nuneaton, Hartshill and Kingsbury areas of Warwickshire.

The charity Crimestoppers is continuing to offer a reward of £1,000 for information leading to the missing woman being found.

She was last seen wearing a long light brown coloured puffer jacket, boots and a tracksuit.
