Police search continues for missing Ashfield teen swept out to sea by a massive wave in Withernsea
Police are continuing to search along the coastline of Withernsea for a missing Ashfield teenager who was swept out to sea.
Grace Keeling, 15, of Sutton-in-Ashfield is still missing following the tragedy that happened off Withernsea at around 3pm on Friday, January 2.
The incident claimed the life of her mum Sarah Keeling who jumped in to try and save her and 67-year-old Mark Ratcliffe, a member of the public who died trying to assist with the rescue.
It is believed Grace was standing on some steps leading down to the beach when disaster struck.
The Coastguard stood down its search for Grace on Saturday.
But officers from Humberside Police are continuing to scour the rocks along the sea wall.
The coastguard responded to reports that there were "a number of people in difficulty" in the water just after 3pm on Friday, January 2.
A huge rescue operation was launched, involving about 100 emergency workers, a rescue helicopter, air ambulance and RNLI crews.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Sarah was an international account Manager at RM Resources in Hucknall living in Sutton in Ashfield, Nottinghamshire.
