All,
A scuba diver died Saturday while attempting an entry at Cleo St. in Laguna Beach. The diver was Antoine Hayes (53) of Costa Mesa and his buddy was Matthew S (38) of LA County. The buddy reports that the pair were experienced, had dived together before, and it was fairly common for Hayes to take a little longer to get through the surf zone. The buddy was in the water, already past the surf zone, when Mr. Hayes indicated with an arm gesture that something was giving him trouble in the surf zone. There was never a call for help. The buddy was not aware of any diver distress but thought there could have been some problem. The buddy returned to Hayes and found him floating. He pulled the diver from the water and initiated rescue techniques.
