The search for a fisherman who went missing Thursday after a 12-foot Johnboat overturned near the Galveston jetties on the east end of the Galveston Island has been suspended, according to U.S. Coast Guards.
A pilot boat crew reported an overturned boat with three men in the water. The three individuals were reportedly in the water together for an extensive amount of time before a wave separated them. The crew was able to rescue two of the fishermen but the third could not be found.Coast Guard crews searched approximately 227 square miles for over 40 hours combined.
“It is never easy making the decision to suspend a search and rescue case, and it’s only made after careful consideration of many resources and factors,” said Capt. Keith Donohue, search and rescue mission coordinator, Sector Houston-Galveston. “After spending time with Sergy’s family over the past couple of days, I know how profoundly they miss their loved one, and I wish them the best during this difficult time.
