The renewed search for a diver missing off the Waialae-Kahala coast was suspended today, but not before intriguing clues surfaced as to the disappearance of New York City visitor Matthew Curley.

Capt. Terry Seelig, a spokesman for the Honolulu Fire Department, said Wednesday the case now rests with Honolulu police or the Coast Guard for possible further investigation.

Among the clues is a partially shredded wetsuit, dive mask, air tank and regulator, Seelig said.

Curley went missing during a group scuba dive with Island Divers half a mile from shore on Aug. 28. The search, conducted in high surf from a south swell, was suspended after four days.
