Man drowns during night dive off Po Toi island
A friend found him unconscious shortly after he went into the water.

The diver was rushed back to shore at Blake Pier in Stanley.

The Hong Kong man, in his 40s, was taken to Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital in Chai Wan by ambulance but later certified dead despite attempts at emergency resuscitation, according to police. He was suspected to have drowned.

Police received a report at around 8pm about the incident which happened in the waters off Po Toi, Hong Kong’s southernmost island.

It was the second death involving a night dive this year.
