The search is expanding for a Brooklyn woman last seen with a convicted sex offender outside a Manhattan nightclub.

According to reports, teams on Thursday searched areas around the Sullivan County village of Bloomingburg for signs of 25-year-old Laura Garza.

The search had previously been focused in the area around the Orange County home of 23-year-old Michael Mele, who is being called a person of interest in the case.

He's being held on $100,000 bail for probation violations.

He has not been charged in Garza's disappearance.

Garza was last seen leaving the club Marquee in Chelsea with Mele early on December 3rd.
