Placencia man is missing at sea

In news just in, police report a man is missing at sea. On Friday, sixty-seven year old Raymond Elijio was en route from Placencia to Gladden Caye, some twenty miles away, accompanied by William Faux and Brian Leslie. Faux reported to police that about a mile from the caye the boat ran aground, but the three men managed to get it afloat and they proceeded to their destination. As strange as it seems, it was not until they reached the caye that Faux and Leslie realised that Elijio was no longer with them. After conducting their own unsuccessful search, the men finally contacted police on Sunday. At present, police, Coast Guard, and B.D.F. personnel are involved in the search, while at the same time police have launched an investigation. Elijio is also known as Pancho or Dread Santa Clause.
