Coast Guard

Coast Guard: One of the survivors called the 911 U.S. emergency dispatch number on a cellphone, alerting authorities to their location 11 kilometres east of Miami, according to The Star. The survivor found when Coast Guard officials flipped over the boat was suffering seizures, and he was taken by boat to a Miami Beach hospital, officials said. He was treated and released to federal law enforcement and MIAMI BEACH, FLA. Ten people were found clinging to the hull of a small boat that capsized early Wednesday in the waters off South Florida, trapping the bodies of four dead women and one survivor struggling to breathe in a tiny pocket of air beneath it. Sadly, and tragically, we did find four females, adults, underneath the boat that had perished, said Coast Guard Cmdr. Darren Caprara. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
