A big land search is continuing on the north coast for a missing Belfast teacher.

Catherine Johnston disappeared yesterday and the alarm was raised after her car was found parked at Ballintoy harbour.

The science teacher is thought to be in her late thirties and from Belfast.

Today's search involves volunteers from Ballycastle and Coleraine  Coastguard.

Last night Portrush Lifeboat and a rescue helicopter from Prestwick were involved.

So far nothing has been found.

Coastguard Alastair Simpson has been speaking to Q Radio news:
