It's already been reported that a missing person storyline is in the works for Ruth 'Roo' Stewart, with fans spotting missing posters proclaiming her last whereabouts and a crime scene involving a burnt-out car.

According to the posters, Roo was last spotted at Swan Parade, Bayfield as she travelled back to Summer Bay in a black Toyota C-HR.

And in the new promo, more information is disclosed as Roo's father Alf is seen at the sidelines of the crime scene, as Sergeant David Langham is seen walking towards him.

But that's not all, as Back to the Bay further reports that filming from episodes show Leah also approaching the same area along with Alf, Marilyn and Justin holding a bouquet of flowers.

What is even more concerning to fans is that an actor was spotted playing a coroner carrying off a dead body - so could this be the end of Roo?

Elsewhere in the bay, there's some more drama surrounding Richie's return following his accidental shooting of Sergeant Langham during a robbery.

Now having been fired from the force, he returned to reconcile with ex-girlfriend Abigail, an offer she is seriously considering.
