SANTA CRUZ COUNTY, Calif. — Investigators are looking for a connection between a body found Saturday on the north side of Monterey Bay and the disappearance of a swimmer on the opposite side of the bay six days earlier, the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office said.

The body was recovered from the ocean south of Davenport Beach about 2 p.m., the Sheriff’s Office said on social media.

“Due to the close proximity to the recent shark attack victim in Monterey County, our agency is working closely with the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office and the Pacific Grove Police Department regarding the recovery,” the Sheriff’s Office said. “The investigation remains ongoing.”

Erica Fox, 55, of Monterey County was reported missing Sunday at Lovers Point in Pacific Grove, on the south side of the bay. The straight-line distance from Lovers Point to Davenport is about 30 miles.

“Two nearby Monterey beaches were closed Sunday “as a precautionary measure due to unconfirmed shark incident at Lovers Point in Pacific Grove,” the City of Monterey said on social media.

A search for Fox covering 84 square nautical miles was suspended after 15 hours, according to a joint statement Monday from the Pacific Grove Police Department, Monterey Fire Department, Monterey County Sheriff’s Office and the U.S. Coast Guard.

On Saturday, Cal Fire’s San Mateo-Santa Cruz unit, known as CZU, used a rope system to bring the body from the beach to the bluffs, the agency said on social media.

Davenport is about 10 miles north of Santa Cruz.
