Dive Team Training |
The Lexington County Sheriff’s Department Dive Team will conduct a training session on Lake Murray beginning at about 11 a.m. on Tuesday, October 13 on the Lexington side of the Dreher Shoals Dam off S.C. 6 near Lexington.
Lexington County Sheriff James R. Metts said members of the Sheriff’s Department Dive Team will conduct underwater dives and other exercises as part of the training that is required for the officers to be certified as law enforcement divers. The training is expected to be conducted until after sunset on Tuesday.
Members of the Sheriff’s Department Dive Team use their diving skills to locate persons who have been reported missing on Lake Murray and other bodies of water, Metts said. Dive Team members also use their diving skills to locate weapons and other physical evidence that is submerged in bodies of water and connected to criminal activity.
