The Antigua and Barbuda Defence Force Coast Guard division is seeking the public’s assistance in its effort to recover a missing vessel at sea.
On Wednesday, the Coast Guard received an alert from a station in Montserrat that intercepted a distress call from a vessel which goes by the name Love Lane and captained by Christian Ferguson. With the assistance of French authorities, the ABDF Coast Guard carried out several search efforts on Wednesday and Thursday but came up negative in locating the missing vessel.
The ABDF Coast Guard is therefore seeking the public’s assistance in verifying that the named vessel, Love Lane and occupant, Christian Ferguson exist and are in distress at sea.
The ABDF Coast Guard wishes also to advise the public that prank calls are not tolerated because of the seriousness of the action and the cost and manpower involved in searching for missing vessels and occupants.
Meanwhile, the general public is advised that the First Antigua Barbuda Regiment (1ABR) is conducting training exercises over the period 13 and 14 June 2020 (Saturday & Sunday) in the Christian Valley to Old Road Areas.
The general public is kindly asked to take note and to proceed with extra care once travelling in these areas. Should any issues arise, kindly contact Commanding Officer Major T Lake (268 464 1282) with queries or concerns.
