2 dead, 10 missing after boat carrying Cuban migrants capsizes near Key West
Two people are dead and 10 others are missing after a boat traveling from Cuba capsized near the Florida Keys, officials said.
The United States Coast Guard said its Resolute cutter had been on a routine patrol in the area on Thursday afternoon when the crew spotted multiple people stranded in the water about 16 miles south of Key West. Eight people were rescued while two bodies were recovered from the water, according to the Coast Guard.
Crews are now searching for 10 possible passengers still in the water. Search efforts utilizing multiple air and surface assets began Thursday afternoon, continued Friday and would take place throughout the night, the Coast Guard said.
The Coast Guard said Friday afternoon it had searched an area of approximately 6,552 square miles through surface and air assets.
Neovys Morales told Miami ABC affiliate WPLG that her friend's son was one of those who departed Cuba on the boat and she is unaware whether he was one of those who was rescued or is still missing.
"It isn't easy," Morales said in Spanish. "You don't know if your son has drowned or is alive. You just don't know."
The survivors told rescuers that they had left Cuba's Port of Mariel on Sunday and their boat overturned sometime on Wednesday evening, according to the Coast Guard. Cuba is about 90 miles from Key West.
