A 55-year-old Winnipeg man died Saturday after RCMP believe he ran out of oxygen while diving in West Hawk Lake.
Emergency crews responded at around 1:30 p.m. and pulled the diver from the water. He was later pronounced deceased on scene.
Police say the man was conducting a recreational dive with his wife when the accident occurred.
It’s suspected the man ran out of air and suffered a medical issue upon resurfacing.
Foul play is not believed to be a factor and Falcon Lake RCMP continue to investigate.
