California: 2 fishing boats capsized in America, all 8 passengers of one boat drowned, while 10 people from the other boat are missing.
According to the World News Agency, two boats sank off the coast of the city of San Diego in the American state of California. More than 18 fishermen were on board both the boats.
The rescue agency received information that there were 8 fishermen in a boat which could not withstand the storm surge and sank. Bodies of 8 fishermen have been recovered from the sea.
Similarly, another boat had more than 10 fishermen on board. Probably the boat sank due to overcrowding due to overloading.
The cause of the sinking of the boats has not yet been determined. Ignorance of the weather conditions of the fishermen can also be a reason for the accident.
The rescue official says that there were dozens of dead fish in the boat and bodies of fishermen and dead fish were lying everywhere on the shore.
