GALVESTON (AP) — The bodies of two men missing since the collision of a fishing boat and a chemical tanker near Galveston, Texas, have been found in the fishing boat's capsized hull, officials said Friday.
The bodies were recovered Thursday afternoon from the 81-foot fishing boat Pappy's Pride, Galveston County Sheriff Henry Trochesset told The (Galveston County) Daily News. The county medical examiner's office identified the two as Antonio Robles, 44, of Pharr, Texas, and Raymond Herrera, 57, of Texas City.
That brought to three the final death toll from the Jan. 14 crash. Authorities recovered the body of Pappy's Pride crew member Constantino Corona, 59, of Palacios, Texas, shortly after the crash. The lone survivor, who had been aboard the smaller boat, suffered a broken leg and was rescued from the water.
