At least 15 people died after a boat carrying migrants from Haiti sank near the Turks and Caicos Islands on March 31, said U.S. Coast Guard officials.

The search for additional survivors was suspended by the Coast Guard late on March 31 after the boat capsized, the agency said on Twitter. It added a photo of what appeared to be a capsized boat in clear blue waters.
