A 57-year-old American man has died after drowning in the waters off Clifton Pier in the Bahamas, authorities said.
The Royal Bahamas Police Force reported that the man and his son were participating in a diving excursion operated by a local hotel shortly before 11 am on January 2, when he was observed floating unresponsive in the water after surfacing.
The deceased was assisted onto the vessel’s platform, where oxygen and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were administered, but efforts to revive him were unsuccessful.
His body was taken to a local mortuary, where an autopsy will be conducted.
