Autopsies were under way Monday to ID victims, but Mexican officials said most were presumed Mexican; federal investigators were tightlipped about criminal probe
near Black’s Beach are presumed to be citizens of Mexico, officials from the foreign consulate said Monday.
When emergency crews arrived, they found two overturned pangas, eight victims and no survivors, authorities said Sunday, adding that some people may have left the beach before emergency personnel arrived. Several life jackets and fuel barrels had been abandoned along a roughly 400-yard stretch of sand.
The Coast Guard sent a helicopter to the site late Saturday, but the poor visibility caused them to quickly abandon the search. On Sunday morning, the agency sent a small boat, a cutter and a helicopter to help with the search, but called off their resources about 4 p.m., according to Adam Stanton, a Coast Guard spokesperson.
A spokesperson from the county Medical Examiner’s Office said there was no information available about the victims’ identities as of Monday, but that autopsies were being performed. He said staff from the Medical Examiner’s Office will often work closely with consulate officials from a victim’s country of origin.
Lozano, the Mexican consulate spokesperson, said that as soon as the Medical Examiner’s Office confirms the identities, consulate officials will notify the victims’ families.
