The body of a man was found at Small Bay Beach in
\nBloubergstrand on Sunday morning while rescue teams are continuing their search
\nfor two young men who went missing at Lagoon Beach in Milnerton on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The National sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) said they believe
\nthe body found at Small Bay may be that of an angler, an adult male, who went
\nmissing at Small Bay on Saturday after being swept off rocks while fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHowever, formal identification will need to be made in
\ncooperation with Police and Forensic Pathology Services,\u201d said NSRI
\nspokesperson Craig Lambinon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Terence Lawson, NSRI Melkbosstrand duty coxswain, said at
\n15:02 on Saturday, NSRI Melkbosstrand duty crew and the City of Cape Town\u2019s
\n water-rescue network were activated following eyewitness reports of an
\nangler swept off rocks at Small Bay, Bloubergstrand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe local coast-watch community immediately initiated a
\nvisual search along that stretch of coast,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The body was recovered by police divers, from rocks on the
\nshoreline at low tide on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt has been taken into the care of police and Government
\nHealth Forensic Pathology Services,\u201d Lambinon said. \u201cCondolences are conveyed
\nto family of the deceased man.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a separate incident on Sunday, an extensive search was
\nconducted for a 19-year-old man and a 20-year-old man who went missing at
\nLagoon Beach, Milnerton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The NSRI said it appears that they were part of a local
\nsoccer team playing soccer at the beach when they reportedly went into the surf
\nbefore before being swept out to sea in rip currents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe EMS\/AMS Skymed rescue helicopter and a Metro rescue
\nsquad drone team joined in the extensive air, sea and shoreline search,\u201d
\nLambinon said. \u201cNSRI rescue swimmers, lifeguards and Cape Town Fire and Rescue
\nServices rescue divers conducted sweeping line search efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite the extensive search there remains no sign of the
\ntwo missing young men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPolice divers are continuing an ongoing search,\u201d Lambinon
\nsaid. \u201cThoughts are with family of the missing young men in this difficult
\ntime.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
