«Breaking News» Rescuers search for California woman, 23, swept out to sea while vacationing in Hawaii

Emergency crews in Hawaii are searching for a 23-year-old tourist from California who was swept out to sea while exploring a notorious tidal pool on the island of Kauai.

According to a preliminary report released by the Kauai Fire Department, the unnamed woman was attempting to climb igneous rocks near the picturesque but dangerous area known as Queen's Bath in Princeville on Wednesday morning when a large wave rushed in and washed her out to sea.

Her boyfriend and two friends reported seeing the woman floating face down in the water before she vanished from view.

Local firefighters, a rescue helicopter crew, lifeguards on Jet Skis, police officers and the US Coast Guard have all been searching for the missing woman, but so far there has been no sign of her.

Queen's Bath is known to be very treacherous, especially in the winter months when the surf is high.

A high surf warning has been in effect for the north shore of Kauai since Tuesday, and the Queen's Bath trailhead has been closed to visitors since last week.

According to the National Weather Service, surf near Princeville was 10-15 feet around the time of the accident Wednesday.

The Garden Island reported that the 23-year-old victim, who was vacationing in Hawaii from Los Angeles with her boyfriend and friends, hiked down a dirt path and climbed a fence bearing warning signs to reach the rocks around the sinkhole.

After she was swept away by a massive wave, her friends lost sight of her, then noticed her arm reaching out of the water, only to disappear again beneath the surface.

A few minutes later, the woman’s companions caught a glimpse of her unresponsive body clad in a white swimsuit being sucked under.

A US Coast Guard official said one of the witnesses reported that it sounded like the woman may have hit her head against something.

The rescuers suspended their search after sunset Wednesday, then resumed their efforts Thursday morning.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
