NEW ORLEANS - The Coast Guard rescued three people from a vessel on fire offshore Pascagoula, Miss., on Dec. 10. All three were commercial fishermen aboard the vessel Lucky Angel. They were returned to shore safely. One person was transported to Singing River Hospital in stable condition after being evaluated by EMS. The CG received a report around 10:30 p.m. from one of the crew aboard that the vessel was on fire about 10 nautical miles south of Pascagoula Channel. A Coast Guard 45-foot Rescue Boat crew launched from CGS Pascagoula. The crew located and recovered all three people from a life raft and transported them to Bayou La Batre, Ala., to be evaluated by awaiting EMS. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
