Search for swimmer in Lake Michigan at Muskegon

MUSKEGON, Mich. (WOOD) — Emergency crews on Saturday scoured Lake  Michigan in Muskegon, looking for a swimmer who reportedly disappeared  under the water.

Boats and divers responded and a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter flew over the search area near Pere Marquette Park.

Around 3:30 p.m., according to Muskegon Public Safety Services, there  was a report that a swimmer was seen struggling and never returned to  shore.

After about four hours, the search was suspended for the night. Crews  were expected to resume the search Sunday, assuming the weather  cooperated.

The water temperature was about 64 degrees Saturday.
