A SEARCH for a man seen jumping off the Palace Pier will resume this morning.
A Sussex Police spokesman confirmed at 9am police and coastguard teams will continue to search waters around the Brighton pier after the incident yesterday at about 1.15pm.
Police said the man, described as white and in his 30s, was reportedly seen entering the sea wearing a rucksack and RNLI crews from Brighton, Newhaven and Shoreham, the Solent coastguard helicopter and divers scoured the area for three hours to no avail.
Any updates will follow.
