Diver reunites woman with camera lost in lake for nearly 10 years

By Around the Web

(UPI) – A technical rescue diver in Virginia found a camera at the bottom of a Virginia lake and was able to reunite it with the woman who lost it nearly a decade earlier.

Lilly Potts was participating in a rescue training exercise with the Blacksburg Volunteer Rescue Squad when she found the algae-covered camera at the bottom of Claytor Lake. “I happen to pass over a camera, and I decided to pick it up and open it up and the SD card was still in it,” Potts told WDBJ-TV.

Potts enlisted the help of a friend who was able to recover about 300 photos from the card.
