A suspected migrant smuggling boat carrying an estimated 18 people capsized on Monday off the coast of Del Mar, in southern California, resulting in at least three confirmed deaths, officials said.
According to Encinitas Deputy Fire Chief Jorge Sanchez, four people aboard the panga-style boat were transported to a nearby hospital, while nine others remain missing. It was unclear how many, if any, made it to shore on their own, Sanchez added.
