A team of specialist dogs and handlers from overseas have joined  the ongoing search for Nathan Clarke this morning (Thursday 8 March).

The team, from Metro-Dade, arrived on island last night at the request of the RCIPS.

The two dogs , who have specialist skills in search and recovery, joined the water-based search when it resumed at 9.30am.

This is not the first time that a team of dogs from Metro-Dade has assisted the RCIPS. They came on island just over a year ago to assist in the landfill search for Anna Evans.

Further updates will be made available in due course.
