PASUQUIN, Ilocos Norte-- Five fishermen on board a capsized motorboat were rescued along waters off Pasuquin in Ilocos Norte, the Philippine Coast Guard reported Tuesday.
Lieutenant Commander Algier Ricafrente, PCG Public Affairs chief, said the PCG Currimao Station responded to a distress call from Barangay Chairman Elviro Agod of Barangay Davila in Pasuquin about five of his constituents in trouble at sea Jan. 15.
Elements of the PCG responded to the call for help and located the troubled fishermen and their motorboat approximately seven nautical miles west of Barangay Davila, Pasuquin.
The five fishermen were picked up by PCG rescuers and their capsized “M/B Russerl May” towed back to Pasuquin, said Ricafrente.
