Lancashire (Across the Border)

Lancashire lies across the Yorkshire border, flagged in the news report as a likely escape path for the white transit van after it struck down PC Kirsten McAskill on a rural road. Police extend their search into this neighboring county's roads and lanes, probing for traces of the fleeing vehicle. The mention amplifies dread in the Gallagher living room, where the vast terrain underscores the kidnappers' evasion tactics and the widening net of investigation.
