LOS ANGELES - At least eight people were killed when two suspected smuggling boats overturned off the coast of southern California, local rescuers said on Sunday.
Mr Gartland said a Spanish-speaker had called the 911 emergency number just before midnight on Saturday, saying there were some 23 people between two small, open boats – eight on one vessel and 15 on another – that had overturned at Torrey Pines beach in San Diego, a city near the Mexican border. Once on the scene, emergency responders found both vessels “capsized” on the shore, and began recovering bodies from the water, according to Mr Gartland.
