Concern is mounting in the village of Urlings after three fishermen who set out to sea on Wednesday night failed to return and remain unreachable by phone.
According to Antigua.news, the missing men have been identified as Calton Pitt, the owner of the vessel, Devon Prince — also known as "Greecegun" — and Ivan Pryce, known as "Puskey." The three men departed Urlings sometime after 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 11, aboard the vessel Faith P, registration V2090UL.
Relatives and friends say repeated attempts to contact the men by phone have been unsuccessful, heightening fears for their safety. Family members are now appealing to the public for any information that could help determine the men's whereabouts.
Anyone who may have seen the fishermen or their vessel — or who was at sea in the area around the time of their departure — is urged to come forward as soon as possible.
Persons with information are asked to call 774-0820 or 728-5884.
Residents and authorities across Antigua and Barbuda are hoping the men will be located safely as the search continues.
