A man has died while diving off the coast of Co Donegal.

He was part of a scuba team that was diving off the wreck of a German U-boat  about 28km off Malin Head.

It is thought he got into difficulties as the team finished filming  and were preparing to return  to the surface and he died underwater.

His colleagues were unable to bring his body to the surface and it is believed they are planning to dive tomorrow to try and recover his remains.
