As police took to social media for help finding Belva, they shared a photo of her car “headed East on Hwy 62 at the Bypass” at approximately 2 p.m. that day. “If any businesses have video cameras that capture Hwy 62 East out East past Walmart, please check this time frame for sightings. Any help would be appreciated,” they added.

In an update, they shared that they were able to confirm another sighting about 20 minutes later in Gepp.

Earlier this week, MHPD investigator Sam Seamans said that officials have made numerous attempts to find her, all to no avail.

“It’s just like she just disappeared into thin air,” the investigator added.

Chaos Divers, an organization that searches for missing people and solves cold cases in the water, has also joined the search for Day, according to the outlets.

“We have a lot of Chaos Divers family in Arkansas, and they were very quick to reach out and say, ‘Hey, this woman has been missing. No one has found her. She’s completely vanished,”  Chaos Divers Manager Lindsay Bussick told KAIT.

“I mean she could be lost. She could be just still wandering the streets and driving around,” Grubbs told the station. “We don’t know exactly where she’s been since she doesn’t have a debit card and we can track her that way.”
