After Vernon Dursley has missed two days of work, Grunnings Drills reported him missing. The Little Whinging police went to Dursley’s house on Privet Drive. The policemen noted the Grunnings Drills company car parked in the driveway. The police knocked on the front door and rang the doorbell. Nobody answered the door, and the police heard no sounds inside the house. The police went to the back door—same results. Examination of the doors and windows found no signs of forced entry. Once the police themselves forcibly entered the house, they found lights on in two bedrooms upstairs and in the kitchen, but no bodies.
