Guam - An 86-year-old Tumon man died after being pulled out of the waters off that village this afternoon. Guam Memorial Hospital officials say the man was pronounced dead at 5:23pm. His body was pulled earlier today from the waters behind Marriott on Tumon Bay.   

Rescue units administered CPR en route to the hospital. GMH also says that the man is a resident of Tumon and not a tourist, as the Guam Fire Department had earlier indicated. An autopsy will be conducted tomorrow to determine his cause of death.
