Posted 3:27 pm, June 25, 2017, by Ann Domeck



CLEVELAND - Coast Guard crews rescued 19 people Saturday in four separate, weather-related cases that involved capsized vessels.

In the first incident, a call came in  at 1:45 pm off of Gem Beach on Catawba Island for a pontoon boat carrying 12 adults that had been hit by high waves and was taking on water. Three people in the water were rescue by Customs and Border Control and the 9 in the boat were escorted back to safety by the Coast Guard. No one was injured.
