A man has been arrested in Lancashire on suspicion of murdering a woman almost 26 years ago.
The 65-year-old was arrested this morning and remains in police custody in Lancashire, where he will be interviewed by Cleveland Police officers.
Vicky Glass was last seen being dropped off by a taxi driver in the Union Street area of Middlesbrough in the early hours of 24 September 2000, three days after her 21st birthday.
Her body was found six weeks later, in a stream in Danby, North Yorkshire.
A number of arrests have been made over the years but no-one has ever been charged.
Vicky’s family have made numerous emotional appeals over the past two decades in an effort to uncover new information about her death
Her mother has reportedly since died, without any answers as to what happened to her daughter.
In 2018, Cleveland Police's Historic Investigation Unit was given additional funding by the Home Office to look again at the unsolved case.
The investigation was reopened in 2021 with police saying they had "significant new lines" of inquiry.
