BLAKE ISLAND, Wash. (AP) — Two people are dead following separate scuba diving accidents Saturday in Puget Sound.
Authorities say 49-year-old Guy A. Snell died during a spearfishing trip with three companions off Blake Island.
Kitsap County Sheriff’s spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson says a search was conducted including several vessels and about 40 Navy divers after Snell failed to surface.
The Seattle Times reports that his body was found about five hours after he went missing. The cause of death wasn’t immediately known.
