Two men rescued without injuries after tugboat sinks in Vancouver harbour
VANCOUVER – Two men were pulled from Vancouver’s harbour without injuries after a tugboat sank on Friday evening.
The Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre says it received a call at 6 p.m. that a 15-metre tugboat towing a barge had capsized.
The centre says the men were only in the water for a short time before they were rescued and treated by paramedics on shore.
The tugboat sank near the Centerm Terminal, east of Crab Park in Burrard Inlet.
