Summary
A pontoon boat carrying family members to a memorial service capsized off San Francisco near Alcatraz, leaving one dead, three missing, and others injured. Witnesses initially thought there was a fire, but officials say there’s no evidence of it — just a vessel sinking in frigid waters with its engine still running. Search teams are racing against time with divers, helicopters, and boats scouring the waters west of the Golden Gate Bridge. A dog also perished in the tragedy, and the Coast Guard and Oakland police are coordinating a massive, ongoing rescue effort.
