Pontoon capsizes near Alcatraz; one dead, three missing as search continues

A 50-foot pontoon boat carrying about 20 people capsized roughly 600 yards from Alcatraz Island during a memorial service. One person died on arrival to shore, and three remain missing as of the evening, with 13 others surviving and three injured in stable condition. The San Francisco Fire Department and the US Coast Guard began a search-and-rescue operation that continued through the night amid rough seas; initial reports varied on the exact number aboard and whether there was any fire on the vessel before it sank.
