Scuba Diver Dies 30 Miles Off Barnegat

Gene Wite, 42 of Middletown Delaware, died yesterday afternoon despite a dramatic rescue attempt at sea by a Coast Guard helicopter crew 30 miles east of Barnegat. The story identifies the Tuna “Seizure” (actual name Seazure) as a fishing boat while it’s actually a dive boat, so I don’t know how many more inaccuracies are in the article. Here’s the link:
