Tanker rescued four of 62 migrants, three dead, ten missing
The U.S. Coast Guard rescued 49 people approximately ten nautical miles off Mona Island on Sep 28, following the report of a capsized makeshift vessel. Three people were recovered deceased, and another ten remained missing. The 'Tripiti', enroute from Tankger Med to Amsterdam, had reported to Coast Guard Sector San Juan watchstanders at approximately noon, that the crew had rescued four people in the water. The survivors reported there were 62 people aboard. The makeshift vessel had capsized on Sep 27 at about 11 p.m., after a fight broke out on board, and people were severely injured by a machete, forcing people to jump into the water and attempt to swim to Mona Island. No one was wearing life jackets. The Coast Guard Cutter 'Joseph Doyle' transported the 49 rescued individuals to shore, where they were placed under the custody of agents from Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to continue the investigations. Anyone who has information that might be relevant to the collective search efforts, was asked to call Coast Guard Sector San Juan Command Center at 787-289-2041. Units searching were: - Sector San Juan; - CGC 'Joseph Doyle'; - Air Station Borinquen; - Air Station Miami; - Puerto Rico Police, Joint Forces Rapid Action; - Customs and Border Protection Air and Marine Operations; - Dominican Republic Air Force; - PR Department of Natural and Environmental Resources Ranger Corps.
