Oxygen tank lightning strike kills diver
A 36-year-old diver was killed off a Florida beach after lightning struck his oxygen tank, authorities have said.
The man, whose name was not immediately released, was diving with three others off a boat near Deerfield Beach on Sunday.
When he surfaced, ‘lighting struck his tank,’ said Deerfield Beach fire Chief Gary Fernaays. ‘He was approximately 30 feet from the boat at the time.’
