iciHaiti - Shipwreck : Condolences from the American Embassy 22/08/2020 09:22:01
On August 19, the U.S. Coast Guard received notification of a capsized vessel that departed Saint-Louis du Nord enroute Hauts Figuiers (La Tortue) at approximately 12:30 pm. According to the report, 13 deceased have been recovered (11 adults and two children). A U.S. Coast Guard cutter and helicopter conducted searches throughout the night and into the afternoon of August 20. The U.S. Coast Guard, in cooperation with the Haitian authorities, continues to make every effort to preserve lives and enforce the law. This tragedy is a reminder of the risks of traveling in small and often unreliable boats that cannot safely navigate dangerous waters when overloaded.
