A Florida man was arrested after investigators accused him of attempting to kill a diver by shutting off an underwater air supply during a dispute at a popular lobster diving location.

According to the authorities, the incident happened early in the morning while multiple boats were anchored in the area. Investigators alleged that an argument began after the suspect claimed another group had taken a spot he believed belonged to him. The owner of the other vessel reportedly disputed that claim, telling the authorities his boat had anchored before the suspect arrived.

As tensions escalated, the suspect allegedly warned that another, larger boat was on its way. Investigators said a second vessel later arrived and positioned itself across from the other boat.

A woman who is suspected of disorderly conduct for allegedly becoming intoxicated and snagging a live lobster on her way out the door of a restaurant is being pursued by the authorities after she reportedly failed to appear for a scheduled hearing regarding the allegations.

Last November, 42-year-old Kimberly Gabel was at a local Red Lobster restaurant early in the afternoon when she allegedly became rather drunk and was reportedly annoying the other patrons.

When the manager told Gabel that she would have to leave she allegedly began yelling at him and using obscene language before heading toward the door. Just as she was about to make her departure from the building Gabel allegedly stuck her hand inside of one of the live lobster tanks, snatched one of the shelled critters, and exiting the establishment with it.
