"The Sheriff has acquired a Zistos Portable Underwater Video Camera System to help search the area of the river where Paola was last seen. This equipment is a high-intensity camera system with lights. It has the capability to see into hard-to-reach areas that cannot be explored by standard scuba equipment," the agency said.
