Search for missing fishermen called off for evening

The search for five men missing off the Wexford/Waterford coast was been called off for the evening at nightfall.

It will resume again at first light in the morning.

Today's search located two empty life rafts, and the crewmen are now feared drowned.

The men's trawler, the "Pere Charles", went down yesterday evening about two miles south east of Hook Head, after sending out a distress call.
