A 14-year-old girl from St. Catharines who was the subject of a regional search has been found safe, according to the Niagara Regional Police Service. The search for Claire ended on the afternoon of March 2, 2026, after authorities raised concerns about her well-being.
Claire had originally gone missing from her family home near Rockwood Avenue and Carriage Road. She was last seen at her residence between late Sunday night on March 1, 2026, and early Monday morning.
The Niagara Regional Police Service asked residents in Grimsby to check their home security cameras and dashcam footage for any signs of the teenager. Investigators believed she may have travelled west toward the Grimsby area after leaving her home.
Detectives confirmed that Claire was located safe at approximately 4:10 p.m. on Monday. The discovery brings an end to the public appeal for help that had been active for nearly 17 hours across the region.
