MUKILTEO, Wash. — A search is in progress for a diver who disappeared in the waters off Mukilteo on Friday morning.
Mukilteo police were called to Lighthouse Park for a call about a diver in distress. Officers said the missing diver, a 33-year-old Edmonds man, was with a diving partner, who was able to get to shore and is OK.
The Everett Fire Department’s drone and marine team joined in the search while a Coast Guard helicopter flew search patterns overhead.
Around 4 p.m., the Coast Guard suspended their search due to poor weather conditions and visibility, according to the Mukilteo Police Department.
The Coast Guard also had an 87-foot patrol boat and a 45-foot rescue boat in the area Friday.
The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office Dive Team will continue searching Saturday with additional resources, police said.
