MIAMI — Three groups of Cuban people arrived in the Lower Keys this week, as the surge in attempts to flee Cuba for Florida by making a treacherous journey by sea — most often in unsafe homemade boats — continues.
In each case, the people were taken into custody by Border Patrol agents.
A group of three men arrived Monday in a small vessel made from foam, at a beach at Key West’s Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park. They spent three days at sea, authorities said.
