A Virginia Beach man has died in a diving accident on the Cooper River near Charleston, S.C., authorities said.
William K. Mizell III, 40, was searching for artifacts around 6 p.m. Sunday with two friends when he went under and didn't come back up, Berkeley County, S.C., chief deputy coroner Bill Salisbury said.
His body was recovered Monday morning near the Pimlico Boat Landing a few miles from Cypress Gardens, authorities said.
Mizell, an experienced diver with at least 600 dives, may have been struck by a boat propeller, Salisbury said.
