Another suspected drowning in False Bay

Rescue authorities have resumed the search for a 26-year old man who went missing while swimming in False Bay on Sunday although they presume he has drowned. The man apparently went swimming at a beach close to Monwabisi in Cape Town, and has not been seen since. According to National Sea Rescue Institute spokesperson Craig Lambinon, the beach the man was swimming at is not patrolled by lifeguards. Lambinon says that a rescue helicopter has been despatched to continue the search for the man, after a combined search by the NSRI and police divers found no trace of the man on Sunday.
