South Florida Boat Crew Missing
Four crew members were missing from a boat found adrift and two
passengers, one of them a fugitive from Arkansas, were being
questioned by federal authorities after they were rescued in the
Florida Straits near Cuba. Kirby L. Archer, 35, of Strawberry, Ark.,
and Guillermo Zarabozo, 19, of Hialeah, were found in good condition
Monday on a life raft and were being questioned about what happened on
the boat. Mr. Archer is accused of stealing $92,620 in cash from a Wal-
Mart in Batesville, Ark., where he had worked as an assistant manager,
the authorities said. He was charged with unlawful flight to avoid
prosecution, and Mr. Zarabozo with making a false statement to a
federal agent, said an F.B.I. spokeswoman, Judy Orihuela.
