Over 30 rescued after boat capsizes near Miami Beach

Over 30 people have been rescued after a boat capsized near Miami Beach.

According to reports in the US, those on board were influencers and the boat was an expensive Lamborghini.

The US Coast Guard said that crew from a Miami Beach station responded after a 20-metre (63ft) boat began taking on water near Monument Island.

They rescued 32 people around 5pm on Saturday.

Good Samaritan boat operators in the vicinity of the incident also helped with the response.

No injuries were reported.

Commercial salvage was left attempting to recover the vessel.

Pictures shared by the US Coast Guard Southeast showed the large boat slowly taking on water, as those on board looked on.

Some people could be seen taking photographs and selfies as it slowly went down and they were rescued.

Former Miss America competitor Regan Hartley was among those on board and she posted on social media to share videos of the incident.
