CAVALIER, N.D. (AP) - A Navy SEAL from North Dakota has died in a kayaking accident off the Virginia coast.

The Virginian-Pilot (https://bit.ly/2iphase ) reports Petty Officer 1st Class Devon Grube was recovered by the U.S. Coast Guard Wednesday and taken to a hospital where he died from his injuries.

The Navy says the Coast Guard was notified of a capsized kayak in Chesapeake Bay not far from Cape Charles Wednesday morning. The Coast Guard responded with a boat and a helicopter and found Grube about two hours later.

Grube graduated from Cavalier High School in 2000 and earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from the University of North Dakota before he joined the Navy.
