A 20-year-old Hurlburt airman was found dead Sunday morning
following a boating accident near the Santa Rosa Sound.
Colby Siegel’s body was found less than 30 yards from the marker his
boat struck several hours before, which caused Siegel and the two
other men on the vessel to be thrown off, according to Stan
Kirkland, spokesman with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission.
The exact cause of death is still under
investigation.
Kirkland said Siegel and two other men,
19-year-old Taylor Wimberly and 23-year-old Derek Richards, went out
late Saturday for a fishing trip and were headed back around 3 a.m.
when they hit Marker 41 near the Sound.
