Seven fatalities reported following the collapse of gangway in Georgia


Seven people are believed dead after a gangway on a ferry dock collapsed on Sapelo Island, Georgia. At least 20 people fell into the water when the structure gave way, prompting a response from the U.S. Coast Guard and other agencies. The extent of injuries is unknown, but search and rescue missions are ongoing. A reunification center has been set up at a nearby church. The incident occurred during a celebration of Gullah Geechee culture, a centuries-old tradition maintained by descendants of African slaves in the Southeastern U.S. President Joe Biden and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp expressed condolences and offered federal resources. The Department of Natural Resources is investigating the incident on the island, which is about 72 miles south of Savannah. The community is asking for prayers for those impacted by the tragedy. The Coast Guard is actively searching for survivors, and the incident is not yet considered in the recovery phase.
