Juan Esteban Montoya Caicedo said there was a baby girl and other children among the group of 40.
said at least 15 other migrants tried to cling to the overturned vessel but couldn't hold on, some desperately tired and hungry when they let go.
Montoya said others still clung to the boat until last Monday afternoon. It would be another day before his rescue. He said they decided to try their luck at sea after looking on the internet and finding groups that said it was easier to migrate that way than by land. A majority of migrants typically travel through Central America and Mexico to get to the U.S. border."Criminals tell you it is safe," Montoya said."They tell you that in three or four hours you will be in Miami coming from the Bahamas, that you are going on a good boat.
