attempting to put out the fire.

The Coastguard wrote on Twitter: “The Coast Guard has launched multiple rescue assets along with assets from local agencies to assist more than 30 people in distress on a 75ft boat near Santa Cruz Island.”

Ventura County officials say multiple people have died but the US Coast Guard is yet to confirm fatalities.

Jen Buesinger Sperry, a Good Day LA reporter, is calling it a “mass fatality” incident.
She wrote: “34 fatalities per Ventura County Fire.”
