REPORT: Skydiver dead after accident in Lodi
There are reports of a skydiver dying in Lodi. It happened at the Lodi Parachute Center sometime Sunday afternoon.

LODI, Calif. -- A skydiver died in a jump at the Lodi Parachute Center Sunday afternoon.

Details were not immediately available, but the incident is the latest in a string of fatalities connected with the business.

The most recent was in 2016 when a 25-year-old instructor and 18-year-old customer died when a parachute failed to open.

An employee there told KGO-TV, the Bay Area sister station of ABC7, that the center will release more information Monday morning.
