Authorities say Se Nah Park, 24, went missing on Sunday evening at Panther State Beach in Santa Cruz County after a rising tide, and that she is believed to have been swept into the ocean. The US Coast Guard has suspended its search after about eight hours, the Guardian reports. Park’s father, Kwang Park, has asked hikers on the coast to watch for his daughter. Three friends were with her, and the New York Post reports they escaped. Accounts differ on when she was last seen: the Guardian and Daily Mail say about 8.30pm, while the New York Post says around 9.30pm. Her family says it is still hoping to find her.
