KINGMAN, Ariz. -- Mohave County Sheriff's Office personnel continued their search Monday morning in the waters of Lake Havasu for a man who has been missing since Saturday.

Spokeswoman Trish Carter said deputies responded at 6 p.m. Saturday to an area near Windsor Beach where a visitor to the lake failed to resurface after falling from an inner tube being pulled by a boat.

Carter said the man, whose name was withheld, was not wearing a life vest.

A search using sonar equipment and divers failed to find the man Sunday.
