Two crew members were drowned after their boat sank in Canada's Atlantic coastal province of Newfoundland, reports said Friday.
According to the coast guards, the 15-meter steel tug went down late Thursday north of Baccalieu Island in Trinity Bay.
Water filled the boat in 10 minutes, forcing the two crew members to move to the life raft before two dispatched vessels arrived at the scene, a coast guard spokesman said.
Both victims were wearing survival suits, the spokesman said. Source: Xinhua
