Oak Harbor attorney Mark Theune, 58, was killed in a diving accident Monday in Lake Michigan, says PNWlocalnews.com.
He was the town of Coupeville’s prosecuting attorney.
“According to Lt. j.g. Adam Saurin, a spokesman for U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie, Theune was diving with Shipwreck Explorers, a charter company out of Manistique in Schoolcraft County when the accident occurred.
The Coast Guard received a mayday call at about noon and a helicopter was dispatched to the vessel’s location, which Saurin said was about five nautical miles northwest of Boulder Reef Rock.”
He was diving to a depth of 500 feet and it’s not clear what happened.
