Rescuers are searching today for a missing woman in Gabriels Gully near Lawrence.
Police SAR co-ordinator, senior constable Murray Hewitson, said the search began last night after members of the public raised concerns about a person walking on the Gabriels Gully track yesterday afternoon.
He said the individual, identified as a 60-year-old woman from Dunedin, appeared to be in distress, causing those who saw her to raise the alarm on their return.
