As RCMP remain tight-lipped about the investigation into the disappearance of two young Nova Scotia children, a resident who lives near their rural home says she has turned over trail camera footage at the request of police spanning five days before they were reported missing.

Melissa Scott, 44, said she was visited on May 20 by two officers from the RCMP’s major crime unit, who inquired if she had any trail cameras set up on her 16-hectare property in Glengarry Station, near the children’s home.

Scott said she was given a USB drive to load her trail camera footage onto. She was initially asked to give them her footage from May 1 to May 3, but they later expanded their request to include April 27 to May 3.

Her Glengarry Station property is a roughly eight-kilometre drive from Lansdowne Station down dirt roads, but is also connected to it by train tracks and clearings for utility lines. It’s roughly five kilometres east of the children’s home as the crow flies.
