A multi-agency search resumed at the weekend for a cave diver missing in Co Clare since the beginning of the month.

The missing man is believed to have gone exploring sea caves at the Bridges of Ross on the Loop Peninsula on Tuesday 3 May, according to the Irish Examiner.

Specialist divers have joined the search party, as the Clare Champion reports, but the poor weather forecast for the rest of the week may hamper their efforts.
