SAN DIEGO (AP) — Authorities say two people were killed and nearly two dozen others were hospitalized after a boat capsized just off the San Diego coast. Local lifeguards, the U.S. Coast Guard and other agencies responded around 10:30 a.m. Sunday following reports of an overturned vessel near the peninsula of Point Loma. San Diego Fire-Rescue says two patients died at the scene and 23 people were transported to hospitals. Officials say it’s possible but not confirmed that the boat was being used in a human smuggling operation.
