Actor Naya Rivera has been reported missing, with Californian authorities revealing her 4-year-old was found unattended on a boat in Lake Piru.

NBC have reported that a search has begun for the Glee star, after she failed to return a hire boat on Wednesday.

Ventura County Sheriff Department Captain Eric Buschow told media that the young child was unharmed.

“He is in good health,” Buschow said, “The family is going through a very traumatic time right now.”

US media reports claim Rivera had rented the small boat for some swimming. While her son was found wearing a life vest, authorities are concerned Rivera was not, with one vest remaining on the craft.
