The search for a New Jersey couple missing in Barbados has been called off, authorities on the Caribbean island confirmed Tuesday.
Oscar Suarez, 32, and 26-year-old Magdalena Devil, vanished June 22 after leaving their hotel to rent a Jet Ski for an ocean excursion. The Montclair couple never made it back to their room.
Search crews had scoured the ocean by air and water vessels for them, bringing in Coast Guard help along with assistance from other agencies. Ultimately, the search was called off at sunset Sunday, authorities said.
Family members had told News 4 previously several relatives had gone to Barbados to help with the search. They couldn't immediately be reached for an updated comment on Tuesday's development.
Based on her Instagram page, Devil has a passion for baking -- whether it's pastries, pies, gluten-free, vegan or cakes. "You name it I bake it," her Instagram profile reads -- and has an email where people can send orders.
Her photo feed is rife with images of delectable treats that she presumably made.
Suarez's Instagram page is private, but it's brief profile sheds light into the man, who it says is "a father above all else." His LinkedIn page indicates he's been with Compass Group, currently as assistant director of dining services, in Montclair for a number of years.
Anyone with information about the couple is asked to call Barbados' emergency number 211, Holetown Police Station at 419-1700, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIPS (8477) or contact the nearest police station.
