DAVENPORT, Calif. —

CAL FIRE CZU says its firefighters recovered a body from a Santa Cruz County beach on Saturday.

Around 12:45 p.m., firefighters posted on social media that they were assisting with a recovery mission on the beach south of Davenport.

California State Parks confirmed the body was a woman. Still, they did not say whether it matched the description of the swimmer who went missing after a reported shark attack in Pacific Grove on Sunday.

Officials did not release identifying information and said the Santa Cruz County Coroner’s Office will handle identification.

“CAL FIRE personnel, as well as Sheriff’s deputies, recovered a deceased person from the water near Wilder Ranch earlier today. Due to the close proximity and the timeframe of the incident in Monterey County, we’re working closely with Pacific Grove PD. We’ll provide more information when it becomes available,” said a spokesperson with the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office.

State Parks referred to the location as a “remote pocket beach” in Wilder Ranch.

The recovery follows the search for 55-year-old Erica Fox, who went missing off Lovers Point in Pacific Grove on Sunday after what officials described as a suspected shark attack. Authorities have not said whether the cases are connected.

Firefighters set up a rope system to bring up the body, and later said they would soon be clearing the scene. No further details were released.
