HANGZHOU - Two fishermen are missing after their boat sank Monday morning in waters off East China's Zhejiang province, local authorities said.
The ship, which collided with another fishing boat, sank at around 3:30 am Monday off Xiasanxing Island, according to a spokesman with the provincial border defense department.
Rescuers have pulled out eight of the sunken boat's ten crew members but are still searching for the other two, he said.
