Coast Guard Airlifts Four Oil Tanker Crew Members After Suspected Food Poisoning

The U.S. Coast Guard evacuated four crew members from a Cyprus-flagged oil tanker off Puerto Rico on Sunday after they reportedly fell ill with suspected food poisoning.

The remaining crew members on the tanker, which was not identified in the report, were reported to be in stable condition.
