Police in Grenada have released the name and photo of a man wanted in connection with the disappearance of Linnea Veinotte, originally from New Brunswick.

They are looking for 26-year-old Akim Frank, of Jean Anglais, St. Georges, the Island's capital.

The statement advises that Frank may be armed, is considered extremely dangerous, and should be approached with caution.

Police may have found a vehicle connected to the disappearance of Linnea Veinotte in Grenda. (Facebook) Veinotte has been missing since Sunday, when she went out walking her dog from her home in St. Georges.

Veinotte, her husband Matt, and two young children have been living on the Island since the early fall, the second time they have lived in the Caribbean nation.

It was the second major piece of information made public on Wednesday in the case.

Earlier, word came that Grenada police had found the vehicle they believe was involved in the woman's disappearance.

Veinotte's brother-in-law, who identified himself only as "Matt's brother," said he can confirm the vehicle has been found.

Police have been looking for a dark SUV that was seen speeding away, possibly with a flat tire, from the area where Veinotte was last seen walking her dog.

Police believe the dog, Nico, was struck by that vehicle and have speculated that Veinotte may have been abducted.

Earlier on Thursday, police reported they found an eyewitness who saw Linnea Veinotte the morning she disappeared near her home in Grenada.

Sylvan MacIntyre, an assistant superintendent of the Royal Grenada Police Force, says someone saw the 36-year-old mother of two with her dog on Dec. 6.

Sylvan MacIntyre, assistant superintendent of police, Royal Grenada Police Force, says more than 50 officers are involved in the search for Linnea Veinotte. (Facebook) "We don't have any report that indicated seeing the exact accident occur, but … at least one person who was there said that the possible suspected vehicle was seen leaving the area hurriedly," said MacIntyre.

Blood was found at the scene of the accident, which they believe is from the dog, but MacIntyre said, "There is no analysis that is done scientifically."

The Find Linnea Veinotte Facebook page has asked people for photos showing Veinotte with her wedding and engagement rings, however MacIntyre says the police have not asked for that information and he was not aware of that Facebook post.

MacIntyre says police are following all leads that come in, but they are particularly interested in finding the vehicle they believe was seen leaving the accident site. He says it's difficult to get a vehicle off Grenada, but easy to to hide one.

"Grenada has quite a number of byroads and inroads and our … housing is sometimes very dense in particular areas. There are small garages … it could be a matter of time before we would eventually find it," he said.

Doug Moore said Matt Veinotte, his son-in-law, was frustrated by a lack of action by Canadian consular officials in Grenada. When asked if Canadian officials were applying any pressure to Grenadian police, MacIntyre said no.

"We are not being pressured by the Canadian government … we've had conversations with at least one senior government official from Canada who's been very assuring in terms of if we need any kind of support."

MacIntyre said similar expressions of support have come from England and the United States.

Veinotte's parents, Rev. Doug and Karen Moore live in Fredericton where Moore is pastor of St. Matthew Evangelical church, a Lutheran congregation. They spent many years in New Denmark, where Linnea was born and grew up.

On Wednesday night a candlelight vigil was held at the Lutheran church in New Denmark.

Moore said he's receiving words of support from many people, including from his former congregation in Lunenburg, N.S.

He says his faith is a big part of what is getting him through these days as he waits for word of his daughter.

"There's lots of people there praying."
