The man who died Monday as he was doing underwater exploring around the SS Tahoe in Glenbrook Bay has been identified.
Michael Stephen Majewski, 63, of Sacramento was diving with two friends in about 360’ of water. All three are experienced divers and had completed a similar dive at the same wreckage the day before but for unknown reasons, Majewski made an emergency ascent to the surface. When he reached the surface he was unconscious and not responsive.
Douglas County Sheriff's Office is continuing the investigation into the accident and the cause of death is pending autopsy and toxicology results.
