More Cuban boat people come ashore in San Pedro

More Cuban boat people come ashore in San Pedro

Reports from Ambergris Caye indicate that another boatload of Cubans
washed ashore over the weekend. This photo of the group was taken in San
Pedro on Saturday evening. Details could not be confirmed but it is
believed their boat experienced engine problems. They are currently in
the custody of the Immigration Department. Other boat people landing on
Belizean territory in recent months have been detained, assisted with
repairs to their vessels and sent back out to sea en route to Honduras
or others points south.
