Tourist dies during dive
By Staff Writer ~ Guardian News Desk:
An American visitor to New Providence died while on a diving trip organised by Stuart's Cove Wednesday morning, according to police.
The victim is a 55-year-old man from California, according to police press liaison officer Sergeant Chrislyn Skippings.
According to her, the man was part of a group that went on a dive trip with the company yesterday morning.
She said when the group returned it was discovered that the unidentified man was missing.
"A check of the immediate area was conducted and the man was found floating in nearby waters, clad in a black and blue dive suit, with the breathing apparatus attached," she said.
Management at Stuart's Cove had no comment on the matter yesterday.
When The Nassau Guardian arrived on the scene, the many guests at the dive operation seemed unaware of what had transpired.
Police say it was unclear as to exactly what happened and investigations continue.
