@chriscerney: A search for 24-year-old Senah Park continued Monday after she was believed to have been swept out to sea at Panther State Beach Sunday night, according to the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office and CAL FIRE CZU. The sheriff’s office says Park was with friends when the incoming tide knocked several people over. CAL FIRE says four people had gone through the beach’s keyhole rock formation and became trapped as the tide rose. Three were able to escape. Crews searched with drones, ground teams and helicopters. CAL FIRE says the Coast Guard resumed searching Monday morning, while the sheriff’s office announced continued search efforts involving its Search and Rescue team, boats and aerial resources. Anyone with information is asked to call the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office at 831-471-1121. CAL FIRE warns that rising tides can quickly cut off beach escape routes. If someone is swept into the water, call emergency services and keep watching their location rather than entering the ocean yourself.
