Three people are dead and at least nine more are missing after a small boat overturned in the Pacific Ocean off the coast near San Diego, California, local officials have said.
The US Coast Guard said on X it was searching for survivors from Monday’s incident off Del Mar, which is 15 miles (24km) north of San Diego.
At least 18 people were on board the panga-style fishing boat, which overturned near Torrey Pines State Beach, according to the San Diego-based CBS News affiliate KFMB.
At least two children were among those on board, KFMB reported.
