– I'm very pleased with the turnout. You never know what might happen.
Throughout the day, Missing People relied on volunteers. Meanwhile, police were also searching with helicopters, drones, and dog handlers. Mountain rescuers and the home guard were also involved.
Also on Friday morning, police announced on their website that hunting had been temporarily banned in a coastal area, effective until Monday. This decision was made in accordance with the Rescue Services Act and may be subject to change.
