DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. –  The Volusia County Beach Patrol says a 19-year-old man disappeared in the surf after being hit by a large wave.

The man was with another man who entered the water after the lifeguards stopped working about 5:30 p.m. Monday. Authorities say the men were hit by a large wave as they were standing in water about 5 1/2 feet deep. One man didn't resurface.

Friends reported the man missing just before 6 p.m. Eleven lifeguards and a Volusia County Sheriff's helicopter assisted in the search, which was called off around 7:15 p.m. The search was set to begin again Tuesday morning.

Beach Patrol Capt. Tammy Marris told the Daytona Beach News-Journal that waves averaged 3 to 4 feet on Monday.

The man's name was not released.
