Martinique Fisherman Goes Missing In The Saint Lucia Channel

A search and rescue operation has been underway since Sunday afternoon after a Martinique fisherman fell into the waters of the Saint Lucia Channel. The Channel is a strait separating Martinique to the north and Saint Lucia to the south. The circumstances surrounding the disappearance of the Martinique fisherman were not immediately clear. However, a release from Martinique’s Prefect disclosed that the Antilles-Guyana Regional Operational Surveillance and Rescue Center (Marine Directorate) learned of the incident at 1:05 p.m. The information triggered a massive air and sea search and rescue operation that included helicopters and privately owned boats. The search continued on Monday. & & The article Martinique Fisherman Goes Missing In The Saint Lucia Channel is from St. Lucia Times.
