The search is continuing for a 68-year-old diver missing in the North Sea since failing to return from a site some 12 miles off Great Yarmouth at 6pm yesterday.
The Brighton man had been diving on a shipwreck with a group off dive boat Raider V operating out of Lowestoft. The alarm was raised when he didn't surface at the allotted time and since 7pm last night, two Coastguard helicopters and three lifeboats from Gorleston, Lowestoft and Caister have been combing a wide area of the North Sea. Vessels in the vicinity have also been asked to keep watch for any sign of the missing man.
