ALAMEDA, Calif. - The U.S. Coast Guard is assisting the Mexican Navy in the search for a 54-year-old female diver 75 mile west the Sorocco Islands, Mexico.

The missing diver was apart of a three person dive team from the Panamanian vessel Somer V. The diver went into the water at 8 a.m., and did not resurface. The owner of a nearby dive vessel notified the U.S. Coast Guard.

The missing diver is a U.S. citizen.
