The search has resumed this morning for a woman who hasn't been since Friday lunchtime.
Valerie Jehan (75) was last seen in the Devil's Hole area around midday on Friday. Her disappearance has sparked a major search operation this weekend with the Fire Service using a drone to search the Devil's Hole itself, and Jersey Water draining a nearby reservoir.
The Fire Service also searched other 'standing water' areas, as well as nearby streams yesterday, as the search zone was broadened to the east and west of Devil's Hole.
Ms Jehan caught a bus to the area on Friday lunchtime, but that's the last time she was seen.
So far the search has involved the Police, the Coastguard, the Fire Service, Jersey Red Cross and volunteers from Jersey Search and Rescue.
Over the weekend, the Police urged islanders not to join in too, because of what they described as the "dangers in the area".
Ms Jehan is described as being 5'6" tall, of proportionate build with light brown/blonde hair. She’s believed to have been wearing a black coat, dark clothing, glasses and carrying a small black handbag.
Anyone who has information about Ms Jehan is urged to contact the Police on 612612.
