Hemmoor: again a diving accident in the Kreidesee - one dead.
Trouble with air supply.
Once again a bad accident happened in the Kreidesee in Hemmoor (close to Cuxhaven) a lake often used by divers. According to the police three divers went for a dive on which one of them lost his live.
At about 30 m (100 ft) a 56 year old man from Hannover ran into trouble with his air supply. So far, the police has not determined the cause of the problem. His two buddies (55 and 44 years old) managed to get him to shore, where a doctor declared him dead.
Last year an accident lead to two deaths in this lake, a former quarry flooded by groundwater. The ice-cold lake is Northern Germany's third deepest, reaching a depth of 60 m (200 ft).
