The Morgan County Sheriff's Office and Morgan County Coroner's Office are investigating the death of an experienced skydiver at the Fort Morgan Airport Saturday afternoon.
Morgan County Communications Center received a 911 call of an injured skydiver at 3:44 p.m.
Responding deputies, Morgan County Ambulance Service medics and Fort Morgan firefighters found 27 year old Brady Kane of Erie gravely injured.
Despite resuscitation efforts by responders and fellow skydivers, Kane was pronounced dead at the scene.
Kane was one of a number of skydivers jumping with a club at the airport.
Witnesses and friends of Kane stated he apparently attempted a high speed "swooping" landing but apparently came in too low and hit the ground very hard.
There was no indication of equipment being a factor in the landing.
It was Kane's second jump of the day.
Fellow skydivers told investigators Kane was a very experienced skydiver with instructor ratings and well over 5,000 jumps.
The Morgan County Sheriff's Department, Fort Morgan Volunteer Fire Department, Morgan County Ambulance Service and Morgan County Coroner's Office responded to the scene.
