GLEE star Naya Rivera presumed dead after her 4 y.o son was found alone on a boat in California

Actress Naya Rivera is missing and feared dead today after her four-year-old son was found alone on a boat in California.

The Glee star and her son Josey rented a pontoon boat on Lake Piru on Wednesday afternoon, but three hours later another boater raised the alarm after seeing the vessel drifting and the child asleep on board.
Cops found Rivera's life vest on the boat and believe she went in the lake to go swimming, saying she is feared to have drowned in a 'horrible accident'. Her car was found in a nearby parking lot, 60 miles from her LA home. Four-year-old Josey has told investigators that he climbed back on the boat and his mother did not, but the circumstances are unclear and cops say it is 'challenging' to interrogate a toddler.
According to TMZ, the boy says his mother 'jumped in the water and didn't come back up'. Rivera had shared a poignant picture of herself and Josey just a day before her disappearance, with the caption 'Just the two of us', in a post which has since attracted an outpouring of sympathy and prayers. The Ventura County Sheriff's Department confirmed last night that it was conducting a search for 33-year-old Rivera, who starred in 113 episodes of the hit musical series from 2009 to 2015.
Divers and helicopters were scouring the reservoir until darkness fell but no trace of Rivera has been found and the search has now been halted until morning.
