Police in Christchurch investigating the disappearance of a teenager say forensic work at the property where he was last seen, will continue for the next two days.
Hayden Miles, 16, has not been in contact with his family since 22 August.
Police believe he was at the house, visiting someone he knew the night he disappeared.
Forensic examinations in the garden finished on Saturday and ESR scientists are now focusing on the inside of the house.
