Coral Springs Police have been using cadaver dogs to search for a woman who went missing last month, officials said Friday.
The dogs searched Wednesday and Thursday in the area of Lyons and Copans Road, as authorities continue their search for 45-year-old Maria Claudia Murphy, Coral Springs Police spokesman Lt. Joe McHugh said.
McHugh said the dogs searched in a large open field and didn't detect anything.
Murphy vanished on March 16 after making an ATM deposit at a bank on University Drive, and surveillance video shows she left her car in a shopping center parking lot on Sample Road.
Police say she left her wallet and credit cards in the car.
The last known video of Murphy is from a Broward Transit bus camera at 2:45 p.m. the same day. It shows Murphy on the northeast corner of Lyons and Copans Road, where the dogs have been searching.
Family and friends have also been searching for Murphy, holding photos of her at intersections and handing out fliers.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call Coral Springs Police at 954-344-1800.
