The PSNI and the North's coastguard today mounted a search of a stretch of the Co Antrim coastline after the discovery of a missing woman's car.
Ms Freda McMullan (55) from Limavady, Co Derry has been missing from her home in Castle Park since Thursday.
Her Fiat Cinquecento car was found in the harbour carpark in the seaside village of Portballintrae earlier today.
