Boat with more than 100 migrants arrives offshore of the Florida Keys

MIAMI — A group of between 100 and 200 Haitian migrants arrived offshore of the Florida Keys Saturday afternoon, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.

Their overloaded sailboat boat was grounded off shore of the gated community of Ocean Reef, the Coast Guard said.

It was immediately unclear how many migrants made it to shore, but photos provided to the Miami Herald show people from the boat sitting on the grounds of the exclusive resort wrapped in towels and being provided with bottled water.
