The Police are in search of four fishermen who were reported to have gone fishing in two open keel boats in separate incidents.
Police PRO, Inspector John Carbon, reported that Tyrone Etienne of Marigot and Lyndell Daway of Vieille Case went on a fishing expedition on April 11, 2013 on a boat named “In A While” powered by two 200 horse power engines and had not returned up to this time.
The Marine Rescue Coordinating Center in Martinique as well as the local Coast Guard conducted a search all day Sunday but that proved futile.
In another incident, Leron Etienne of Vieille Case and Justin Carriere of Anse De Mai, reportedly went fishing on April 13, 2013 about 10:00 pm and have not returned since.
They are aboard a boat named “Blue Star” powered by two 85 horse power engines.
The search by the Marine Rescue Coordinating Center and the local Coast Guard is continuing with regard to both incidents.
DNO spoke to Carriere’s brother who said that Etienne and Carriere went fishing around 10:00 pm on Saturday.
That same night the fishermen made contact with relatives on shore via cell phone stating that their boat was sinking.
They also gave their location and rescue instructions were given, according to the brother.
They have not been heard from since and repeated calls to their phones have proven futile.
Carriere’s brother told DNO that fishermen from the area began searching Saturday night and have since been joined by the French Coast Guard.
He is now hoping that his brother will be found and returned safely to his family.
DNO, has the search been called off??
All those fools that just talking about to much engine for fishing am sure u don, t know a. Dam thing about fishing and boat, and people dont fish at night u all are so stupid the very same fish u buy or eat and dont know where , when or how they catch it are fish u can’t catch during the daytime but only at night so wake ups fools I take great pleasure in waiting for my husband to see his catch in the morning so try and learn a little more about fishing before u just chat stupidly
Eudes your pain is my pain. My heart cannot take it and I am crying for you and hendo. Keep praying des, keep praying. Dont let go because I know you so well. Your other children needs you. God will help you, dont give up hope. Let people say what they want, but I know your heart.
yess tqo of the boys came back home… lyndell and tyrone but they have no idea lyrone and justin were lost too… there boat had sum engine issues so day fell asleep nd it drift awa to the carribean sea.. they entered @ portsmouth arong 9 oclock lastnite… fyi no drugs was on the boat… day were not brused neither sick… they are fine… tyrone is still cryin tho for his brother… i was told that lyron nd justin went out to get fishin pots day had placed out in the sea…. hmmmmm hope u 2 are ok although u didnt habe respect for sum pple nd rude… even cursin pple to cum on ur bus!!! if u r alive i hope u change ur ways nd realize everybody is not perfect ….
ALl you just tying up all you self. First report was the other two went out because the first too called in to say they had engine problem. Now all you saying they did not know the other two were missing as well? hmmm
the first two are now safe in dominica
I’m starting to think that the first boat got eaten by Jaws, and when the second went to rescue – a whale ate it.
I do hope that they are found ok. If perchance they went out to do some illegal actiivity- i hope that at least they did not kill them…
Let’s hope that they are found – dead or alive, so that the family has closure. There cant be anything worse than knowign that your loved ones have vanished without a trace.
And I do agree that this story is very, very fishy. So fishy it smells of fish guts. 2 boats – 2 bros disappearing same time….
I’m not a detective so i’ll pray for the best…but logically speaking…hmmm
alas papa poor marigot yes everything marigot in it now they even giving marigot nationals dat not dars
Well DNO update the story already.
Heard 2 docked last night
Yessah alu Dominicans not good eh…making family & friends of Leron, Justin, Lyndell & Tyrone sorrow be alu joy..sets of doh good people…take time to do good…people don’t laugh these things..pray for the guys & their family instead.
I’ll keep praying for them. Leron & Justin God is good he will surely deliver, only he knows your struggle, everything will be okay.
Lyndell and Tyrone were found safe and thanks God they are back home with their families
some of them were found last night
Would like to hear what story the first 2 that came in by boat last night/backdoor have to give. This case gets more interesting by the minute.
bouyon boy come back home dread … just easter there man take our little lime and just not hearing from u .. sad.. i feel real sad
juni.. mark .. joe .. fermine hold strong .. trust me ..
we all know this young boys lets pray for them lets not get carry away my prayers are with them just cannot stop think. I always doing water sport who know what may go on with the boat, jetski or tubes I starting to think we all for our self in that small dominica
it’s a shame that some of us there talking about how much power they boat have an what not what time there go to fish an what not to me even if is drugs this guys went for it’s a life out there we think that our big mouth will keep running an they will come back safe (where are they prayers went Dominican does see the wrong thing at the wrong time the matter is not drug but missing men
does it really matter wat they went do do? the point is they are missing and it could happen to any of us so stop the negative and find place in ur heart.i pray 4 you guys safe return
By the mechanics of your reasoning it seems like we should go back to using sail & oars
Thank God that Lindel and Tyrone are safely back!!! praise God! we continue to pray that Leron And justin will be found alive. God is great. we are hopeful.
I think it is time for the Fisheries Dept to make a statement on those incidents that are taking place. Every time people get lost at sea it is alledged that they are fishermen who go fishing when most of them do not even know where the fisheries building is. This is putting genuine Fishermen in very poor light and maybe they too should take up the matter if fisheries is not addressing it
I didn’t realise one had to know where fisheries building is to be able to go fishing? What will the speech do? Can Fisheries Department control the movements of fishermen, or people with boats? Why are you imputing improper motive without having the facts? What is so strange about them being out in a boat, everybody must be up to something strange to satisfy you people? Who controls your movements when you claim to be going some place and end up elsewhere? See how ignorant you sound? no you won’t but I am telling you in the absence of hard facts quit speculating because every other idiot has begun a character slamming on people identities you all don’t even know. FYI people do fish at night, and people can go out to fish and night befalls them.
I wonder what specie of fish that they went fishing for. Dominica fishermen leave early and return to shore during daylight so how these adventurers left at 10pm? and one boat have two 85hp and another one 200HP very fishy
Ur kind of specie dey went fishin 4!!! Smh! Or mayb d same kind of specie u does go fishin 4!
it is very unlikely for both engines to break down at the same time thats the main reason for twin engine.
bouyon and leron i’ll keep praying for u guys…….god is a good god. demm fools with dem stupid comments fire for all u. pathetic
Where could they be? Let us hope they are found. My prayers for them are also with their family. Lord, please help.
People come on here sugar coating things sending the wrong signal to our young people. Yes, families are grieving and I feel their pain deeply, but this is a golden opportunity that we must seize. It is now a great time to lead people in a reflective mood, to think of their lives, to think of their parenting skills. It is a great time to send a message to the other young person or group of persons who may be thinking of doing something as risky and silly as this that when they do these things, everyone feels the pain. They leave families and friends hurting and there is a cost to it too, because tax payers money is being used to fuel coast guard to go on these wild goose chases.
We hear of these things far too often. Far too many lives are being lost. Parents need to teach their children the right values, that if they work hard, they can and will succeed. That is through hard and honest work success is derived.
Instead of sitting and trying to find ways to denigrate and tear down each other, find ways to promote self, and instill good values in your children.
We live in an era where sin is adored, and criminals are now made heroes. When we do these things we are telling our children that this is the way to go, it is okay to steal to kill, tell lies and engage in all kinds of immoral and illegal activities. We think we are hurting others by promoting evil, and forget that we got little eyes, ears and young minds around us, looking at everything we do and this my friends is how this vicious cycle continues.
It’s time we stand up for truth, righteousness and justice and do our duties as mothers, fathers and each others keeper. We need to go back to the bible, this is where our manual for peaceful and successful living is found!
Now go ahead and blast me, I’m ready for it. If I was scared of your thumbs down on silly comments I would not have posted this message.
to be frank, there is no way that a vessel with two 200hp engine in dominica is for fishing…. we are not in the french country where fishermen get everything duty free… they will be just catching fish to buy gas with two 200hp engines….I SAY DRUGS..
as for the other anse de mai boat we know bouyon=drugs.what amaze’s me is that when we know what people wrong are doing we never encourage them to stop instead we suckup to them for money, bling,party and just to be in the lavwey…yet when something terrible happen we come and cry.. ….
what abunch of hipocrite people
Lyndei Tyron and Lyron them are my cousin lord so sad to here this yea about them hope them safe and uncle just die thats there grandfather to there mother me know how sad it is with u all at this time just keep on praying god is good cuz thats you all dear cousin in Antigua god bless love u all guys
tyrone and lyndel have being found
My heart goes out to all families .Its a sad thing to hear that four young people go missing .I do hope they are all found alive and well.My prayers go up to heaven on behalf of all parents especially to my cousins Eudes and Sonia and their Grandmother Dada.Im at a loss for words and really don’t know how to express myself. Im really saddened by this event and pray that it doesn’t become tragic and that all boys be returned home safely.
so these guys went out to fish at 10pm .at what time do we expect them to start selling the fish to us?
believe me people when i tell u guys lendell is safe. lendell is a fish.By tonight he will be on island listen and u will hear
It doesn’t matter what they went out there to do, fishing or not we are talking about people’s life. they are humans who have friends and families who love them!I’m seeing some silly comments and pple even liking them smh. in a time like this we should be praying for them! Not trying to figure what they went to do….they are humans..for crying out loud! And I don’t care who hate my comment!
Anyway I pray to God they are somewhere on some island safe!
I agree.Though i despise the drug trade thats going on on and around DA, i respect the life of all individuals, Life which is that God given gift to us. The thing is, many involved in running the trade have no respect for life, even that of their colleages. Though the effect of this trade is always a downward spiral (it only serves greed,avarice, illicit gain,) when lives are lost in this spiral, there are always families affected. Those who really mourn the loss off their loved ones. No one would like to be in such a situation. So lets set our goal towards getting rid of that evil trade without ridding ouselves of the sons and daughters caught up in its tentacles, in the process. Hope that these “fishermen” make it back home, and learned the true value of that elusive “fish” they went after.
hmmm. this is just so fishy. it really smells like fish. two different incident? hmmmm. they will find them if some other fishermen doe blow their heads off with a fish Gun. i am smarter than this. i know what i know that you do not know. Lets keep praying.
i vast majority can dislike my comment. zor trop sort. they other two will return hom soon and not even be hospitalized. tebe dominicans. i from the area and i know them.
On the real, it shouldn’t matter as to why they was out there we talking about family members that’s missing. Why not think on the positive side and pray for there safe return,wouldn’t you want that if it was your family?
Jah Only you know how sad this is
Eudess and Hendo, Only God can bring joy,peace and happiness to you at this time.your first and second sons are missing.only you can feel the pain.Whatever they had gone to do-lets forget about that.these young men have children.both brothers have babies.they also have sisters and brothers,lord guide and protect them.
Boofy just had a baby yesterday.smh
Sonia, Eudess, and Dada, I feel your pain. I am praying for the safe return of your boys, also their friend. Keep the faith, God will see you through. Keeping our fingers crossed, they will be found in one peace.
so u asking for the safe return of the brothers and their friend .what about the one from anse sol dat,you not praying for him to
but there fren she was referin to is 1 from ans sol da… eudes is lindell aunty so obviously she refered to dem as 1 of ‘the boys’
DID YOU MISS THAT LINE? I am praying for the safe return of your boys, “ALSO THEIR FRIEND”.
Isn’t the “FRIEND” from Anse Soldat?
I don’t think my post should be questioned because I know the family personally. Two brothers, a cousin, and “THEIR FRIEND”.
Was there someone else that I don’t know about?
Stupes. They said “return of your boys, also their friend”. Why not read carefully before insinuating crap!
i doe understand dem nuh
Fool, didn’t u see the word friend?
if they left shore at 10 pm no moon light, and after they reached a distance, God know how far they were when they encountered engine or what ever problem at what time should the search and rescue begin? it is obvious for the search rscue to start on on sunday..who know how many big fish were there lying in in wait?
The individuals were said to have made contact via cell phone and also they gave their location at sea. How was that posibble when the coordinates they gave is twice the distance for cell phone coverage. The alledged individual that they made contact with should be taken into custody and be made to assist the police in getting to the bottom of this alledged fishing expedition.
So true. If they were able to make cell phone contact they could not have been far. Why haven’t they been found.
**SEA**
no sence
That’s true
fishing?? tyrone from marigot??.. in “another” incident they went “fishin”??
But anyways i hope they find them and they are safe! sighh
Its always, they gone fishing, sometimes they dont even have no fishing gears on board to catch a fish in the event they see a fish.
lol.sorry but this one had me lol
Have you seen their boats? How do you know they don’t, or didn’t, have fishing gears on board?
Oh my God !! I humbly pray for their safe return. Leyron and Tyron were my fellow classmates at PENVILLE PRIMARY SCHOOL. My heart goes out to the families of them all.
Kendel Shillingford
Coporal of Police.
Please give me a break
god alone know where dey are my heart goes out to the family.
All you going to fish too late. But then to is what kind of fish eh…. Hope you all are still somewhere and can be rescued.
so two brothers are missing on seperate boat ?i hope all is found safe somewhere.fustin.please get home safe.
no matter how many men that are missing at sea, my heart goes out to the family and friends…They are men with familys who am sure is praying for there return… whatever they were doing is not the point right now let come home safe and then we ask question and may God be with them where ever they are.
I always say the government should make it manditory that all fishing boats have lifejackets and an inflatable raft for emergencies.
Also about the type of weather and geographical area. How much are they aware of that? This is not the first time some went fishing in the night and were never heard of.
LYNDEL!!! Why??? Just d other day we
walked up d road amber 2gether when u catch d octopus… :'( :'(
lmao @ THE NAME ah Penvillian goat lolololol
Lol hmmmmm
Ok. Since these fishermen are so high-tech and with 2-200 hp engines. They should invest in type I PFD devices at satellite phones along with EPIRBS, that in the event of a mishap like that there chances of being found will be great!
Hope they are found!
* and satellite phones*
You people will run your silly mouths but all of you know or are friends with atleast one hustler.You take rides & drinks from them. whatever them soldiers were up to is their business…..Bouyon,Ugly,Boofy,Tyrone boi one love wherever you all are
they not hustling the honest way, cause i used to talk to bouyon, now people crying and they know what he doing
them men went fishing? nonsense!!! State the real case………. fishing at 10pm?what was their location when they called for help? we must stop covering things up
retarded u doe know it is easier to catch more fish at night cuz thats the time fishes come out to eat u doe know nothing so shut the hell up
tyrone is not from marigot he is from penville,and am sure they are alive and well eating coconut and cooking lobster.
He is alive
oh and it have a person that is anonymous i wish they didn’t teach u how to use a computer
wat u saying makes no sense at alllll
I am so pissed by some of those stupied comments, if u doe know wat u talking bout shut ur mouth. I’m from Anse-Sol-Dat we hope Justin and the others fellas can be found….. hold on tight Justin!! I am praying day and night
also to their families lets just have faith and keeping hoping. some of all u doe know bout boat buy slow engin like is titanic is not a cruise
Super load coming in from ST Vincent needed two boats, police should block them what do you think?
Your comment have me thinking ehh. “Superload”? You probably have an idea of “things” out there
We live in a world that is controlled by technology too many families have to suffer these losses I recommend that every fisher folk be liscensed and the boats are all equiped with gps and tracking devices that can be traced through radar throughout martinique marie galante and guadeloupe that way if they drift away they can be picked up on any system its sad when these things happen you never stop looking for that person to come home
If they are not found, it creates a lifetime void in the life of their family.
i have never heard of fisher man lost on land
Lyndel, Tyron, and Leron are all my cousins and all I can do is pray and hope for their safe return. Their mothers recently lost their father and my uncle; a loss like this would be devastating. I do not know Pierre but I know his father, so I pray God that all are found safe.
It is indeed a sad story for us all. Sunday morning early, even before i went to church service i heard the shocking news, it was amazing to see the number of persons who was by the Anse Da Mai bay, just looking out at the see helplessly, family and friends.The church is very close to the bay side. while i sat in church service i said my prays for these guys. i was hoping and wishing that the people who was looking out at the see helplessly would have just come into the church and said a pray for them like myself. the reading surprisingly was also on fishermen. I still keep praying every hour of the day for them. may God give them all that second chance, and safely guide them to your earthly land.
tyron ,leron, lindelle, justin hope we can get closure vieille case and surroundins are sad, bus drivers are saddened because of leron boofy. we feel the pain of the gilfriends and kids but all we can say is lord send an olive branch
three from our village vielle case , one from our neighbouring village , lord all of them have small kids , let us hope they return so we can find closure, i know lindelle i tyron can be drifting but as for boofy
fishing in the night. I glad
some people are so quick to judge they fail to realize its still MISSING human beings out there. it doesn’t matter the circumstances. family members still have to come n read this shit.
o my dear lord him the young boys. I cannot imagine what the guys think and go through in that dreadful period. lord please help them if they are still alive
Two 200hp behind a fishing boat?
Them man maybe went to Alaska 4 the next season of Deadliest Catch
@who vex vex – shut up.
All you like to cover up too much. What is the hush hush about? Why you want Hallie Berrie to shut up? They went fishing? If they did, then they should be given Dominica’s meritorious service award.
I’m in Alaska. I’ll let you know if they show up.
LMBO!
I know, this is a lot of horsepower and a lot of weight too! Well I imagine is a nice size boat, because there is no way that the regular fishing boats are capable of pulling through with that.
What a mess boy!
Manday mwen. Domnichen ni twop guts.. they chasing fish or fish chasing them with all the horsepower..
Maybe they not messing around with arresting fellows at sea anymore and simply make them disappear. No more bail! Hope I’m wrong but it is a possibility.
You are very correct in your assessment, that was the first thing that caught my attention, that’s a whole lot of power for a small fishing boat. Thats like entering a bicycle race with a rally car.
People who put that kind of power on a boat need to get from point A to point B in a whole hell of a hurry.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Praying for Justin safe return home please lord bring my cuz Hine
oh my gosh. these incidents are never good news. my heart goes out to the families.
Inspite of the circumstances I pray dat they are safe taking a man life is too much
fishermen at night. fish have marle papa. moon not shining all you going for fish? i wonder what fish dat
you should know! ask your family; they know it all.
lol cheaqin!
If you look at an almanac or do your research you’ll find out that fish don’t bite(eat bait) during moonlight…**get facts before you speak**
hmmmmm is all I saying. why registered fisher men never go missing. why those fishing boat have more power thatn registered fisher men boat. why they going fishin big nite? who vex loss but why why why
thats the best answer u can give in times like that?
is just a time to sympathize with the people..they are my family members and these things hurt..it can happen to your family too
Everyone chooses their life paths but I didn’t expect news like this.
Lyndell, You use to joke that you are a fish, I guess you really gone to meet your kind….sad news indeed.
maybe by some miracle all four will be found alive
ohh lord bring them back i pray in your sons name jésus
Lord be with them. Hope they return safe..
nice
This is a lot of horsepower for fishing. I pray tat they are all found safe. I pray that God comforts the families at this time also. What a mess! Such young lives!
Its really just sooooooooo sad. I pray for their safe return.
I hope they are safe. I wonder if they had safety flotation devices and flares..
Lerone Ettiene from vieille case, Tyrone Ettiene from Marigot? them man are brothers. same mother and father? where y’all getting, nuh?
Admin: Reader, this how the DNO story reads: “Police PRO, Inspector John Carbon, reported that Tyrone Etienne of Marigot and Lyndell Daway of Vieille Case went on a fishing expedition on April 11,” which indicates that the information came from an official and authoritative source – the police. If you listened to other newscasts, you will realize that they all used the same information from the same official source.
We thank you for what we hope is an attempt to assist but you must understand that DNO cannot go changing official information on the basis of comments. However, just in case, you are correct, we will attempt to check the veracity of the information you have provided. You could also provide that information to the police if you’re convinced that they’re mistaken.
Yes dey are brothers .
cuz one stay marigot and one stay else were
one is nt from marigot leron and tyron mother a from veille case and their father from penville,they stay most of there life in penville get all u fact staight
If i know the boys well enough, Tyron and Lyndell are cousins. Sons of two sisters. Tyron’s mother is from Vieille Case and his father from Penville. Tyron is by no means from Marigot.
Lerone Ettiene and Tyrone Ettiene are indeed brothers mother from Vieille Case and father from Penville. They are the cousins of Lyndell. Sons of two sisters. It has been whispered that the second vessel might have gone out in search of Lyndell and they unfortunately encountered problems themselves.If i were in the fishing business, i would want a good boat with plenty horse power myself. No time for alluding to crap.
Three out of four is from vieillecase.i know because the are my close cousins .
i know these guys personally, we went school together, so sad hope they find u guys soon. jah blesss
Lord have mercy! Father just stretch out your mighty hands and guide these men to safety so that they can go back to their families.
To there family I no what you all a going through hold on I believe every thing will be alright
“Two 200 horse power engines?” Hmmmm!! That’s a lot of power wii for a small-open fishing boat!
is the situation about the “200 hp engines” or the lost boys? stp that nonsense! you sound like you are a HATER.
np more sewo money for you
do you know what the french fisher folks have behind their small boats . so is for us duminicans to saty backward as always
DAM DAM DAM, man me an lyndel used to dive all the time. his likkle brother too used to come. dam man not like dat lyndel, doh leave us like dat.
Lord please guide the young men who are out there, father please bring then home safe!!!!!!!
I pray that they are returned home safetly to their families. God be with them.
why is there someone who is disliking all the threads bout god being with them and protecting them… hey if it was ur family u would want someone to be praying for them… they all have children under the age of 5 so have a heart
DNO is so disappointing at times. just because y’all got contact and info from Carriere’s brother, the news item is focused mainly on carriere. Lerone Ettiene is not from Thibaud, he is from Vieille Case and he has family to. what is this?nDNO get ur info right. there are fou men missing, not two. Two from Vieille Case, one from Vieille case residing in Penville and one from Anse-sol-dat. two was out, encountered problems, called for help, the two others went out to search for them and encountered problems of their own. DNO….. step up!! what one sided thing is that? Lets just pray that they are all safe and will be found soon.
Admin: Do you have any contact information for the relatives of Leroy Etienne? We’d be happy to have it. We’ve only been able to reach Carriere’s relatives.
Did you call DNO to assist them with furnishing it readers with the correct info?
DNO is reporting what police PRO told them and 1 brother, am sure that there are countless stories on the ground that the police nor DNO are aware of, give DNO some slack….if you have info, call them with your name and give the info and am certain they will publish!
if you read properly you would see it said that lerone is from vieille case….read properly before you write
lyrone is from vielle case but his parents r form penville.. he sumtimes stays bense by his grandmother and aunties.. tyrone is from penville not marigot.. he is lyrone’s brother he has only been satyin marigot over a year or more with his girl friend. and lindell is there cousin.. idk for the carriere boy.. i dont know him
hope my cousin leron and d rest a found alive and safe,prayin for u all guys.
dno he is from penville
I‘m not sure the right info was given. To my knowledge four of them a missing.
But god be with them, i hope they a found safe and returned to their familys‘.
o boy that bad news we let pary for the family
Je prie dieu kon te retrouve justin
ours prayers a wit u on the french side
i pray they are found alive
the guys are not dead they are somewhere, who knows. cant you feel it…they will be back before the week end,lets wait to see.
why would someone dislike your thread?
The timelines indicated in the story above are not accurate. The search began on Sunday morning….
Yes but them man called since Saturday night saying they experiencing issues and you only saying something on Sunday…chhuupppess..am so pissed
Yes they did called saturday night but the familly only got the news Sunday Morning about 6:20. The person who recieved the call never contact the family. Maybe they could have been save if the news got to them early. He was thinking about himself. Justine we love u and will never forget you my dear Brother.
