THE search for a diver
missing off the coast of Donegal will resume at
first light this morning.
The Buncrana lifeboat crew took part in a massive
search yesterday evening for the diver who went
missing 16 miles north west of Horn Head.
The diver, one of a group of seven believed to be
from the Fanad area, was reported missing when the
rest of the diving party returned to their boat, The
Rossguill, shortly after 2pm.
A rescue helicopter from Scotland joined the Irish
Coastguard helicopter and around ten vessels
including the Arranmore and Lough Swilly RNLI boats,
in the search. A Scottish fisheries protection
vessel also assisted in the search which was called
off as darkness fell shortly after 10pm. |
