A diving trip in the Gulf of Mexico turns bad, when a woman goes unresponsive underwater.
U.S. Coast Guard officials say it happened around 10:45 Saturday morning about 15 miles offshore from Port St. Joe.
A group was scuba diving around the Sherman Tug area, when the woman went unconscious. Officials say another diver noticed she was inverted and had dropped her gear.
The woman was pulled back up to the boat. Coast Guard officials say she was taken to the pier in Mexico Beach, where an EMS team tried to resuscitate her.
Mexico Beach Police officials say the case was turned over to the medical examiners office.
