Radio transmissions from the U.S. Coast Guard shed new light into the incident that now appears to be an assault on several individuals at sea, 45 miles south of Perdido Pass Sunday night.
After receiving a distress call, the Coast Guard sent an alarming first message with a high level of urgency, called a Pan-Pan aka, Pay Attention Now, to vessels in the area to lend any assistance they can:
ORIGINAL STORY VIA WKRG: Two people were airlifted from a fishing vessel Monday morning after a stabbing in the Gulf of Mexico, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
