(1080 KRLD) - Friends of an Irving man, who was trapped after a sand dune caved-in, said he has died.
Police said Lee Goggin was digging a tunnel in the sand on the beach in Saint Augustine, Florida When the sand caved in.
Goggin had a heart attack while buried. Friends said he suffered from swelling in the brain and was in a medically induced coma afterward before passing away.
