WA: Divers search for 19yo US tourist in WA
A search is underway for a 19-year-old American tourist .. who's been swept off rocks
into heavy seas in the south of Western Australia.
Police say he was with three or four other American tourists at Torpedo Rocks near
Yallingup .. when a wave swept him away about two o'clock (WST) yesterday afternoon.
Authorities launched an air search .. but a large swell prevented boats from taking
part in the operation.
Divers joined the search at first light today.
