Solo Diver
After a dive in the rec range (36 meters about 100') 3 divers apparently surfaced too quickly (first one due to unspecified issue, second and third allegedly trying to help the first) and died while the fourth one delayed resurfacing and it is in series condition in recompression chamber.
They chartered a private boat for a dive. Coast Guard was alerted by passing boats today around noon local time in Italy and responded with 3 vessels and a chopper. They could only quickly transport one to hospital while the other three declared dead on scene.
All equipment has been taken in custody by the enquiring magistrate.
Possible scenario involves bad gas. Names are named in the newspaper news release.
