"Search efforts to locate Clare continued today as part of a coordinated operation involving the Barnstable Police Department Detective Division, Barnstable Police patrol officers, Massachusetts State Police patrol units, and the Massachusetts State Police K9 Unit," the Barnstable Police Department said in a social media post Monday.

On Sunday, the search effort included police dogs, dive teams, ground search personnel and aerial drone resources, according to a previous post.

Police asked residents and business owners to review surveillance footage recorded between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Thursday.

"Even footage that may appear insignificant could provide investigators with valuable information," police said. "Establishing Clare's location through surveillance video is critical. Confirming where she was seen, and when, could help investigators narrow the search area, identify potential travel routes, and focus resources where they are most needed."
