KEY WEST — The charter captain piloting the boat that crashed into a Florida Keys bridge back in July and injured seven people, including a child, was arrested this week on drunk boating charges.

Coast Guard cutter Escanaba stopped the 30-foot vessel overloaded with illegal aliens from Haiti approximately 50 miles southeast of Marathon, Florida.

Police said it is believed the anchor became detached and the boat floated with help of strong winds for roughly three weeks just over 300 miles before washing ashore in Vero Beach.
