Fishing boat drops off body
The body of a 51-year-old crewman who died at sea Nov. 30 aboard a Japanese fishing vessel was turned over last night to the medical examiner’s office.
A spokesman for Honolulu Agency said the fishing vessel Daikichi Maru No. 2 stopped at Honolulu Harbor to drop off the body of the crewman, who may have suffered a heart attack.
An autopsy will be done.
This case is unrelated to the death of 32-year-old Mohamad Taufik, a crewman from the fishing vessel Tokuju No. 7 who died at sea Nov. 28 and was brought to Honolulu last week.
