Coast Guard rescued passenger who jumped over board
A passenger of the 'Lite Ferry 10' jumped overboard on Sep 1, 2025, shortly after 5 p.m. in the waters off Cabilao Island in Loon, Bohol. The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) Substation in Loon received a distress call via VHF radio from the ferry, reporting a man-overboard incident. A quick response team was immediately deployed, and by 5:16 p.m., PCG personnel had arrived in Barangay Mocpoc, Loon, where they launched an SAR operation. Coast Guard personnel rescued the victim, a 23 year old resident of Loon, at 5:45 p.m. An initial investigation revealed he was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident. He initially resisted rescue attempts and even refused to take the life rings thrown at him. Despite his resistance, rescuers managed to safely pull him from the water. Following the rescue, he was brought to Barangay Mocpoc and turned over to the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office for medical evaluation by the Rural Health Unit of Loon. By 6:54 p.m., Coast Guard personnel returned to their station.
