Aqualung Diver Drowns Off North East Lake
Robert Herman 27 died while skin diving with an aqualung at Shorewood Beach near North East Lake Erie. His brother Leonard 34 of Russellton Pa said Robert was learning to use the device, it was his first dive, and the empty aqualung may have pulled him under. The body was recovered 76 feet from the disappearance site after a weekend search by multiple fire companies as storm concerns delayed operations.
