    Three people were killed and 11 were detained on Saturday night when a makeshift boat capsized in the Caribbean, authorities said.

    U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents in the Caribbean bureau said the makeshift vessel, called a "yola," went under Saturday night with "approximately" 38 undocumented immigrants on board, according to a statement. Three drowned and 11 were detained by the Ramey Border Patrol, the CBP stated via the agency's verified Twitter account. It is unclear what the status is of the other migrants.
