On Monday, the Maui County Fire Department recovered the body of a 27-year-old man from New Mexico who was reported missing on Saturday, officials said.
The victim, who police identified as Angelo Ruiz, was found at 10:15 a.m. approximately 50 yards offshore, a half-mile from where Waikamoi Stream pours over a bluff and enters the ocean, according to a statement from the Maui Police Department.
The waterfall is a popular stop on the road to Hana on the island's eastern side.
A second victim, also a man in his 20s, remains missing and rescue crews continued the search Monday with the help of a helicopter and boat, according to the fire department.
