Two dead, five missing
Officials confirm there are at least two dead and five missing from the storm striking the Regatta outside Mobile Alabama. Rescue and search efforts continue. Officials:
Forty people have been rescued from the water after the 4:30 p.m. storm, and the Coast Guard believes five people remained missing Sunday. We think we are looking for five additional people in the water but we are still pulling for information.
Four missing, one dead
At least four are missing and one is dead in Alabama after several boats capsize in a storm during the Dauphin Island Regatta. The search for survivors continues. Officials:
It’s been a very tragic day. We’ve had a lot of breakage, missing people, fatalities. Apparently there were a number of vessels that became distressed, either capsized or what have you. They were scattered anywhere from Dauphin Island Bridge all the way out into Mobile Bay and across to Fort Morgan. It was a wide area.
