A commercial fishing vessel has overturned off Cape Cod prompting a U.S. Coast Guard search for the two people on board
BOSTON -- A commercial fishing vessel overturned off Cape Cod on Thursday, prompting a search in which one person was recovered from the water and the other is still missing, U.S. Coast Guard officials said.
The person who was recovered was “transported to higher medical care,” Coast Guard spokesperson Keira Shantry said.
Coast Guard Sector Southeastern New England received a notification just before noon that the vessel Yankee Rose was overturned about three nautical miles (3.5 miles) northeast of Race Point in Provincetown, Shantry said. Coast Guard crews arrived on the scene along with local agencies minutes later, Shantry said.
One of the people on board has been transported for medical care while the search for the other person is ongoing, Shantry said.
The Yankee Rose, docked at a pier, was also the site of a police response on February 26 in which police and firefighters responded to a report of an unresponsive person on board, Provincetown Police Department said in a statement.
