No Foul Play Suspected in Scuba Diver Death in Texas Lake

A 77-year-old scuba diver has been found dead in a Central Texas lake and investigators say there's no indication of foul play.

The Bell County Sheriff's Office says the body of Robert Morgan Tarbet of McGregor was located Thursday afternoon in Stillhouse Hollow Lake near Belton. A woman called 911 after spotting the body close to the marina.

Sheriff's Lt. T.J. Cruz says Tarbet was diving alone. The diver was found with a full air tank. Tarbet's vehicle was on shore.

No possible cause of death was immediately released.
