The body of a Department of Natural Resources scuba diver who disappeared in Puget Sound has been recovered.
David Scheinost, a 24-year-old man from Puyallup, was last seen Tuesday when he and colleagues were taking samples of shellfish.
His fellow divers saw him struggling at the surface for an instant, then he submerged and disappeared.
Searches over several days were fruitless. His body was finally found yesterday.
An investigation is now underway to determine cause of death.
