Three people were killed and four others injured early Monday morning when a small panga-style boat overturned in the waters near Torrey Pines State Beach, San Diego County officials said. Nine more individuals remain missing as a multi-agency search operation continues.
Authorities responded to reports of the capsized vessel around 6:30 a.m., according to the San Diego Sheriff's Department. Coast Guard boats and helicopters were deployed, assisting lifeguards coordinating the response. A 45-foot rescue boat and a helicopter were dispatched to aid in locating the missing, a Coast Guard spokesperson told CNN.
