A scuba diver died Sunday after failing to surface at his scheduled time at Pennyroyal Scuba Center on Christian Quarry Road.
Christian County Coroner Scott Daniel identified the victim as 32-year old Linas Reed of Washington, Missouri.
Christian County Emergency Management Director Randy Graham says Reed was an experienced diver with extra oxygen, but personnel became concerned and called 911 when he didn’t resurface after a couple hours underwater.
Reed was transported to Jennie Stuart Medical Center with CPR in progress and Coroner Daniel says he was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Reed’s body was transported to the Medical Examiner’s Office in Louisville for an autopsy.
