"We've just decided to examine very closely a boat that we strongly believe was involved," he Tuesday night. Meanwhile, a group of 33 Haitians came ashore in Palm Beach. A 25-foot wooden boat washed in with that group. Although the Martin County "and Palm Beach County groups were first spotted within minutes of each other, officials don't believe it's possible that all 63 people could have been aboard the vessel found on Palm Beach. I There were no injuries among the Palm Beach County group, which included 19 children, 11 women and three men.

Although several people picked up on Hutchinson Island were treated for minor injuries, all were released to the Border Patrol except for a woman who suffered a gash on her head and her two children an infant who may have pneumonia and a 10-year-old girl suffering from exposure. All three were at Martin Memorial Medical Center in Stuart Tuesday night. Martin County sheriffs Sgt. Larry Lawson said documents found with the group indicate that Hutchinson Island was the planned destination.

And one man attracted investigators' attention because he spoke fluent English and had $450 in U.S. currency, some Bahamian cash and a plane ticket out of the country with his belongings. Immigration said federal charges are possible if it's proven that smuggling was involved or that a boat captain deliberately sent the refugees overboard in dangerous, rough surf. Hardy Nicoleau, executive director of the Haitian American Community Center in Palm Beach County, said the smuggling and the tragedies at sea will continue as long as the violence and political struggles continue in Haiti.
