    Canterbury Police say they've exhausted all avenues, in their search for a vulnerable, 79-year-old woman missing in Christchurch


    Elisabeth was last seen on Bartlett Street in Riccarton on Wednesday night - wearing blue pants, a dark long-sleeve top and black shoes.

    She has distinctive long white hair.

    Police say there is no formal search team planned today, but all staff have Elisabeth front of mind when they're out and about.
