Honduran boat sinks, 4 rescued in Belize

Four of seven passengers who went missing after the boat they were traveling in capsized, were found alive this morning. Ruset Connor, Wayne Connor, Angimar Connor and Orlando Bodden, all Hondurans, were today rescued by BDF soldiers after they were found floating near Hunting Caye. While details are still sketchy, it is believed that the seven occupants left Puerto Cortez, Honduras last Friday night on the “Roatan Express”, enroute to Roatan in the Bay Islands. The boat apparently capsized early Saturday morning. Search parties are still looking for the three passengers still missing.
