Searches have continued in Ballymena for missing woman Chloe Mitchell, as loved ones marked a week since the 21-year-old was last seen.
Search and rescue teams worked throughout the weekend, with volunteers combing through undergrowth on the banks of the River Braid on Sunday, while colleagues entered the water to search for clues.
Two men remained in custody on Sunday evening after being arrested in connection with the investigation into the young woman's disappearance.
A 34-year-old man was arrested in Ballymena on Saturday, while police were granted an extra 36 hours on Saturday to question a 26-year-old detained in Lurgan last Thursday.
Ms Mitchell, who is from the Harryville area of the Co Antrim town, was last seen in Ballymena town centre in the early hours of Saturday June 3.
Police have classed her as a "high-risk missing person", and are working with the Community Rescue Service (CRS) organization in scouring parts of Ballymena for information on her whereabouts.
She was last seen wearing a green and black North Face-style jacket, with a white T-shirt, leggings and Nike trainers.
CRS lead Darren Harper said volunteers faced "challenging" circumstances as the searches continued in high temperatures across the weekend.
"They are going through dense shrubbery, overgrown woodland along the riverbanks, so it is hard on them and it's vital that we look after their welfare as well as maintaining high search standards," he said.
PSNI Superintendent Gillian Kearney, said in a renewed appeal for information on Ms Mitchell: "It is completely out of character for her to not be in contact with her family, who are being supported by specialist officers during this worrying time.
"I am appealing to anyone who was travelling through the James Street area in Ballymena from 10pm on Friday June 2 and 5.40pm on Thursday June 8 to think if they saw Chloe or anything unusual."
She also urged drivers with relevant dash-cam footage to contact police.
"I am appealing directly to Chloe to make contact with the police, family or friends so that we know you are safe and well," Superintendent Kearney added.
As searches continued, members of the community gathered for a public prayer event on Sunday evening at Harryville Presbyterian Church Hall in Ballymena's Casement Street.
Independent Ballymena councilor Rodney Quigley told the Irish News: "This continues to be a deeply worrying time for Chloe's family, and for the wider community in Ballymena.
"All of our thoughts are with her loved ones, and we are grateful to police and search and rescue volunteers as they continue their tireless work in the area."
