MIAMI — A large group of migrants from Haiti arrived in a wooden boat off the shore of an exclusive gated community in north Key Largo Sunday afternoon.
Initial reports estimate between 150 and 200 people were on board the vessel when it stopped in the shallow water off Ocean Reef Club after 1 p.m., said Adam Linhardt, spokesman for the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.
A video taken by a witness shows the people from the vessel swimming to shore.
