DORSET, UK (5 Aug 2005) -- The UK Coastguard has deployed a helicopter and boats to search for a scuba diver who went missing off the Dorset coast.

The missing diver, a 48-year-old female, was scuba diving with Divers Down on the wreck of the Kyarra.

The Divers Down crew called the UK Coastguard after the victim's buddy surfaced and alerted them of a missing diver emergency.

 

In addition to Coastguard helicopters and boats, the Swanage-based dive boat "Killer Prawn", police and privately owned vessels joined in the search.  Divers also searched the wreck site.

Despite fair weather, searchers have found no trace of the missing diver.
