RIVIERA BEACH, Fla.-- It turned into a distressful Labor Day for a scuba diver in Rivera Beach.

A fire rescue worker and friends said the diver took on some water then came up too fast.

Emergency crews were called to Phil Foster Park and the diver was taken to a hospital as a precautionary measure.

Friends say he was talking in the ambulance, and is going to be fine.
