Child still missing after family dies in boat capsizing incident

A tragic boat accident in Florida’s St. Johns River claimed three lives, with a young girl, Victoria Marin, still missing. The vessel capsized on March 21, leaving eight people in the water, none wearing life jackets. Four were rescued, while Cristian Marin, his son Juan Camilo, and his mother Nubia Romero perished.

Despite a 17-hour search covering 270 square miles, strong currents continue to hinder efforts to find Victoria. The tragedy highlights boating safety concerns, with experts urging life jacket use. The grieving mother, Paula Valderrama, expressed gratitude for the community’s support as authorities continue their search.
