NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) — Bahamian police are searching for a 52-year-old man believed to be the owner of a boat that capsized in rough seas and killed at least 11 Haitian migrants and left some 12 others missing.

A wanted poster issued Thursday says Chancelaire Baptiste is wanted for questioning about the Sunday night capsizing off the northern Bahamian island of Abaco. He is apparently a Bahamian-Haitian residing in the Abaco town of Treasure Cay.
