Two fishermen dead after lobster boat capsizes

Two fishermen are dead after a lobster boat capsized on the water off Inverness County early Saturday morning. Nova Scotia RCMP say they recieved a 911 call at around 6 a.m. about a fishing vessel that had capsized less than 100 metres from the shore near Port Hood. There are few details available at this time, but sources say a 30-foot lobster boat carrying three fishermen capsized near the community of Colindale, N.S. Three men on board were thrown from the boat, and one of them was able to swim to shore.
