"The whole family is Missing You , especially me and your dad, your sisters and brother," She Said .

"I miss you so much, it is breaking my heart not knowing where you are. I love you more. "

The motorist who pulled over near The Bench has subsequently made contact with Police and had "really helped out" with The Search , Officers said.

A screwdriver, hammer and lip gloss were retrieved by forensic Officers close to The Spot where she was last seen.

But Humberside Police said they were not "connected with The Inquiry into her disappearance" and the items were "part of another investigation".

Appealing to The Public earlier, her father Russell Squire said "we just want Libby home".

He added: "Libby is Our Kind , thoughtful, Beautiful Girl who is loved by so many people.

"As you can appreciate this is a very difficult time for us both. "

Mr Squire thanked "everyone for their help and support" before asking anyone with information to contact The Force .

Police are keen to speak to anyone who was on Haworth Street between 23:30 and 00:30 on The Night she disappeared.

Ch Supt Phil Ward, of Humberside Police , said: "While her location is not yet known, this does not mean she has come to harm, but we must carry out a thorough investigation and explore all possibilities.
