POMPANO BEACH, Fla.-A diver has died after being brought to the Hillsboro Inlet marina in Pompano Beach.
City spokeswoman Sandra King said the man, 22, was diving for lobsters in 40 feet of water when he surfaced unconscious.
The man was on a chartered dive trip called Scubatyme.
He was brought to the marina, where paramedics were waiting to take him to Broward Health North.
The man was pronounced dead at the hospital.
The death could be the first of Florida's two-day lobster mini-season, which began Wednesday.
