JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (23 Sep 2005) -- A scuba diving student has gone missing while participating in a PADI night diving course.

In the second PADI night diving course accident within the past month, two of ten course participants tried to abort the dive due to rough seas at Vulcan Rock, off the Hout Bay coast.

 

As they tried to get back on the boat, one of the divers drifted off into the darkness.

The National Sea Rescue Institute has deployed several boats and a helicopter to search for the missing diver.
