The Coast Guard will hold a press conference at 3:00 pm.
According to a breaking news report from Fox News, a “debris field’ has been located in the search for the missing Titan submarine that was touring the wreck of the Titanic.
“The Coast Guard is scheduled to hold a press briefing to discuss findings from the Horizon Arctic’s remotely operated vehicle near the Titanic,” the Coast Guard said in a press release.
From Fox News:
Around five hours ago, the Coast Guard said the Horizon Arctic’s ROV “reached the sea floor and began its search for the missing sub.”
The Titan submarine vanished Sunday morning with five people onboard: OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, French mariner Paul-Henry Nargeolet, British businessman and explorer Hamish Harding, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Sulaiman Dawood.
The Titan lost contact with its surface vessel, the Polar Prince, around 1 hour and 45 minutes into its dive Sunday morning, about 900 miles east of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and around 400 miles southeast of St John’s, in Canada’s Newfoundland.
The U.S. Coast Guard is heading a unified command that involved commercial assets, research vehicles and military counterparts from Canada, France and the United Kingdom.
