CG rescues 4 in south La.


Four people were rescued Oct. 7 from the Grand Sun passenger vessel that caught fire in Chandeleur Sound, La. CG New Orleans launched a helicopter crew. The aircrew arrived at 3:52 a.m. and recovered the four from the boat and transported them to emergency medical services at CG Air Station New Orleans. The CG later launched a response boat and crew from Venice, La., to monitor the vessel’s location and check for possible pollution.
