Glee actress Naya Rivera is presumed to have drowned in a Southern California lake, according to reports.
The 33-year-old, who played Santana on all six seasons of the musical drama, has been classified as a missing person after jumping off a boat in Lake Piru and not resurfacing.
According to TMZ, police officers found Rivera's four-year-old son Josey Hollis Dorsey alone on the boat at around 5pm PT on Wednesday (1am Thursday UK) after the alarm was raised by a passing boat.
The outlet says that Rivera's life jacket was still on the boat and her son was sleeping when officers arrived at the scene.
Divers were deployed immediately at the scene but were forced to abandon their search for Rivera due to fading light, although it is expected to resume at sunrise at around 6am PT (2pm UK).
Lake Piru is around 50 miles north-west of Los Angeles, where Rivera lives with her son, and is a popular destination for boating, camping and fishing.
Josey, Rivera's son with ex-husband Ryan Dorsey, is now said to be in the care of close family members.
