Border Patrol arrested 113 Haitian migrants after their sailboat ran aground off the coast of Florida on Saturday afternoon. The boat was spotted off the coast of Key Largo, near the gated community of Ocean Reef, officials said. Rescue crews transferred people from the grounded boat to coastguard vessels, with some entering the water without life jackets and having to be rescued by crew members. Chief Patrol Agent Walter N. Slosar, who leads the agency’s Miami sector, said in a Twitter post that agents are working to keep immigrants “safe, clean, fed and healthy and to determine exactly who they are and what they may or may not be wrong with them.’ JONES TORES LAWMAKERS OVER BORDER CRISIS: THEY WERE ALL FOR THE COUPON UNTIL THEY WERE HARD The area off the coast of north Key Largo has been a frequent destination for Haitian migrants since November.
