Man dies after surfing off Kahuku Golf Course


Advertiser Staff

A man died this afternoon after he was pulled from waters off the Kahuku Golf Course.

The man, who appeared to be in his 50s, was surfing in a spot known as Seventh Hole when he apparently got into trouble. When paramedics and firefighters arrived shortly at about 12:15, bystanders were conducting CPR on the man, said Bryan Cheplic, spokesman for the city’s Emergency Services Department.
The man was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead, Cheplic said. An autopsy will be performed to determine the cause of death.
