Tonight, the families of the four missing fishermen continue to worry about their whereabouts because it's been 6 days since they went out on their fishing trip, and they have not returned home. As we've told you, the dread is mounting, and they are expecting the worst because one of 5 turned up dead on Monday. He died from multiple gunshot and chop wounds.
As we've told you, 24 year-old Elgin "Ricey" Graham, 49 year-old Thomas Young, 26 year-old Derwin Gentle, 26 year-old Kenrick Chi, and 34 year-old Sergio Flores left for a fishing trip to Southern Long Caye since last week Thursday. Their families contacted them when they arrived at their fishing camp, and they were expected back home over the weekend. They didn't show up, and then Belize Port Authority found Young's body floating in the sea near to where the party went fishing.
Yesterday the Coast Guard searched this entire area, and today, they searched close to the Belize district, but they've not been able to find any of the 4 missing men or their vessel, Natasha. The weather was particularly difficult for the search team, but nevertheless, they conducted thorough sweeps, to no avail. They will resume their search early tomorrow morning. We'll keep following the story.
