Accident off the coast of the USA
Four wounded were transported to hospitals – CNN said. Members of the Coast Guard in an interview with the AP agency reported that they did not know where the boat flowed before it fell over.
AP explains that such boats do not have a roof and serve mainly fishermen, but are also often used by smugglers.
The US Coast Guard has announced that nine people are looking for who are still considered missing in this case. An investigation in this matter was initiated. The spokesman for the coast guard told CNN that the lifeguard and the helicopter were distributed in search of the missing.
– They weren't tourists. It is believed that they were migrants – said AP AP officer of the coast guard Chris Sappey.
