Divers and an air crew responded to the 13400 block of Fiji Way around 10:40 a.m. after receiving a 911 call about a man who was seen in the channel struggling to swim. 

Once on scene dive crews conducted a subsurface search of the area. Roughly 30 minutes later five divers started conducting a tow bar search of the person’s last known position.
