It is thought Rivera was not wearing a life jacket, but her son was, according to police. The sheriff’s office said that it was searching for a “possible drowning victim” in the lake. An air and dive team have been deployed to the lake to search for the 33-year-old.

The missing person at Lake Puru has been identified as Naya Rivera, 33, of Los Angeles. SAR operation will continue at first light. @VCAirUnit @fillmoresheriff @Cal_OES pic.twitter.com/bC3qaZS3Ra
