The U.S. Coast Guard is searching the Mississippi Rivers in the Belle Chasse area for four men reported missing from a commercial vessel.
The four men, Bangladeshi nationals who were aboard the freighter Meghna Adventure, were reported missing around 11 p.m. Monday after they failed to report for a meeting.
"On Monday at approximately 11 p.m., Coast Guard Sector New Orleans watchstanders received notification of potentially four persons in the water," a Coast Guard official told WWL-TV.
The Coast Guard is searching for the missing men with a helicopter and small boat crew.
