WAIALUA, Oahu (AP) — A Honolulu skydiver who lost consciousness during a jump from a plane has died.

The medical examiner’s office identifies him as 30-year-old Martin Monahan. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating.

Skydive Hawaii says a reserve chute automatically deployed but he landed hard in a field.
