Abandoned Kayak Belonged to Missing Man, Officials Say
Marc Cross hasn't been seen since Aug. 4, when he said he was going kayaking.

A kayak found floating off Laguna Beach belonged to 53-year-old Marc Cross, who disappeared on Aug. 4 from Newport Harbor,
Newport Beach officials said.
A nine-day investigation by Newport Beach investigators concluded the green kayak indeed belonged to Cross, according to city officials. The kayak was located the same day Cross went missing, reportedly by an off-duty sheriff's deputy, but the family was not able to immediately identify it.
The U.S. Coast Guard called off its 52-hour search on Aug. 7. Cross was not wearing a life jacket when he told his family he was going kayaking for a few hours.
