at approximately
3:00 pm,
Officer Don R. Schultz, #4410, was participating in a Dive Team search for
evidence in the canal near

found lodged in a canal gate by other members of the Dive Team, who freed him.
The current was apparently so strong it may have pulled his regulator away.

after being removed from life support.
