Instead of treasure, Polish divers find human remains

Police have confirmed to News Five that human remains were found yesterday in the Blue Hole at the Lighthouse Reef formation. Efforts to bring the body to surface are set for tomorrow. Polish divers on vacation in Belize, on a tour with Aqua Dives of San Pedro, reportedly discovered skeletal remains. According to the report, the sighting was made after seven last night in waters three hundred meters deep, within the Blue Hole. According to an unconfirmed report, the remains were found with the suit, oxygen tank and camera still intact.

This find is linked to an incident back on August fifth of 2001 when Dr. Ruben Delgado, a forty-three year old cardiologist of Miami failed to resurface from a dive into the Blue Hole. Many search efforts were made to find Delgado’s body, but all were futile. On Friday an expedition will be sent to retrieve the remains and diving equipment.
