At least eight people were killed after two boats capsized overnight near the shore of Black's Beach in San Diego County, as rescue crews continued their search on Sunday for additional missing victims, the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department said.
Shortly before midnight on Saturday night, the San Diego Fire-Rescue Lifeguard Division received a 911 transfer call from a Spanish-speaking woman who said she had been on a panga with 15 people and had made it to the shore at Black's Beach after overturning in the surf, San Diego Fire-Rescue Department Lifeguard Division chief James Gartland said on Sunday.
The woman said that another panga with eight people had capsized and victims were in the water, according to fire officials.
