One crew member has been found dead after a U.S.-flagged cargo ship overturned near the Northern Mariana Islands during Typhoon Sinlaku. The 145-foot U.S.-registered cargo ship Mariana lost contact April 16 after reporting engine trouble as Super Typhoon Sinlaku struck the Northern Mariana Islands. Meteorologists said Sinlaku had sustained winds near 150 mph when it hit the islands, producing extreme seas and complicating rescue efforts.
