Search for missing divers suspended

The search for two divers missing in Scapa Flow has been suspended.

The Stromness lifeboat was launched just before 5pm this afternoon after two divers, who had been diving the wreck of the German battleship Brummer, failed to surface.

The Sumburgh-based search and rescue helicopter was also called in to  assist in the search, which was suspended at 8.20pm this evening.
