Two fishermen were rescued by the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) after a whale shark bumped into their boat which submerged in the waters off the vicinity of Romblon.
The fishermen were identified as Edgardo Lozano, 60; and Harry Lozano, 51, residents of Barangay Maragondon, Maragondon.
“During the inquiry, the fishermen said they were hit by a whale shark while underway, which caused the incident,” the PCG said in a statement.
The PCG said the search and rescue team ferried the fishermen home safely while their submerged boat was towed by fishing boat John Glemen. Jaspearl Tan/DMS
