Search suspended for missing diver off coast of Pompano Beach, U.S. Coast Guard says
The search for a missing diver who was last seen just off the coast of Pompano Beach on Saturday has been suspended, the U.S. Coast Guard said.
The USCG said on X that its air and surface teams had been actively searching for 24-year-old Jack Levine, who "reportedly failed to resurface while diving" about two miles off Pompano Beach. He is said to be last been seen wearing a black wetsuit.
A beach rentals employee told CBS News Miami that the surf has been rough in the area all day and rarely anyone has been going into the water due to the waves.
In another post to X later Saturday night, the USCG said it would continue its search overnight, and partner agencies, including the Broward County Sheriff's Office, are planning to join them on Sunday to assist.
By Sunday night, the USGC said it suspended search efforts for Levine pending the development of new information after searching about 1,470 square miles over the weekend.
If anyone has seen Levine or has any information that may help the search, they are asked to call the USCG's Miami Sector at (305) 535-4472.
