The Dominica Coast Guard is in search of a fisherman from Fond Cole who went missing this morning.
Dominica News Online (DNO) was reliably informed that the fisherman reportedly fell off his boat while fishing.
His boat was found by the Coast Guard officers and brought to shore. However he has not yet been found.
Details are sketchy at the moment, but DNO will follow that story and provide an update in a later publication.

Mandatory safety gears and communication device(s) must be taken onboard before venturing out to sea by every fisher. This will help to save lives or easily locate those fishermen who encounter difficulties at sea.
Too many fishermen in our surrounding water have met their demise in a watery grave. This must be arrested by prudent actions.
