A smoke flare has been used in the rescue of three people in the water of the Key Biscayne coast, Florida, USA.

The fishermen were saved after their boat capsized near Fowey Rocks Lighthouse, reports Aux Joey Feldman, of Air Station Miami External Affairs. USCG Air Station Miami filmed the rescue.

Miami-Dade police responded quickly and brought the stranded fishermen safely back to the Crandon Park Marina.

The US Coast Guard Air Station Miami assisted in the rescue efforts by dropping a smoke flare and guiding boats in the rescue operation.
