POLICE are still searching for the man who dived into a river because he thought a police helicopter was after him.
John Fisher, 21, of Gilesgate, Durham City, has not been seen since the early hours of Monday when he and a friend took the plunge.
The un-named friend swam across the River Wear, near the city's sewage works, but Mr Fisher has not reappeared.
Police frogmen continued a search at the weekend. More searches will be held today
