Death at Three Tables is second in 2 days

A 48-year-old man apparently drowned Wednesday at a North Shore beach where a snorkeler died Tuesday.

The man was apparently swimming at about 4:40 p.m. Wednesday when he was found unresponsive in the area of Three Tables Beach near Waimea Point, a city Emergency Medical Services report said. Good Samaritans started CPR until first responders arrived and took over. The man died at the scene, EMS said.

Also Wednesday, the Medical Examiner’s Office identified the 60-year-old Colorado visitor who was found unresponsive Tuesday morning while snorkeling at Three Tables as Stuart McPherson.

Autopsies will be conducted to determine the causes of death of McPherson and a man found unresponsive in the Hilton Hawaiian Village lagoon Tuesday.

The identity of the 50-year-old man who was found unconscious in the lagoon was being withheld by the Honolulu Medical Examiner’s Office until his relatives are notified of his death. He was taken to Straub Medical Center, where he died.
