RANCHO PALOS VERDES

Search continues for missing man

Rescuers continued to search Tuesday for James Jun Hee Goh, who was swept out to sea off the coast of Rancho Palos Verdes over the weekend.

Goh, a 23-year-old Rancho Palos Verdes resident whose last name was incorrectly reported Tuesday as Ko, was walking along rocks on the Calle Entradero beach shore near the Point Vicente Lighthouse about 6:35 p.m. Sunday when a wave hit him and two companions.

Goh's friends escaped, but he was pulled into the ocean. The Coast Guard, Baywatch Redondo, and Los Angeles County Fire and Sheriff's departments have searched for Goh since shortly after his disappearance, but have found nothing, said Los Angeles County Missing Persons Investigator Diane Harris.

Rescuers said they will search for Goh until he is found.
