Body matching description of missing Jamaican man found in Massachusetts

  • Arabic

A body matching the description of one of two Jamaican brothers who went missing last weekend has been found, Massachusetts police said on Thursday.

The man had earlier been seen jumping from a Martha's Vineyard bridge, made famous by the movie Jaws, with his brother, whose body was recovered on Monday morning.

The second body was found by a shell fisherman on the edge of a pond on the Massachusetts resort island about 11.30am on Thursday, police spokesman David Procopio said.

“The body matches the description of Tavaughn Bulgin, 21, who has been the subject of a week-long continuing search since he went missing Sunday night,” Mr Procopio said.

His brother was Tavaris Bulgin, 26.

The Bulgins were seasonal workers at a restaurant on the island where much of the 1975 movie was filmed.

They and two friends jumped from the bridge late Sunday night. The two friends made it out of the water alive.

Commonly called the Jaws Bridge, it links the towns of Oak Bluffs and Edgartown.

Also known as the Big Bridge, it is officially the American Legion Memorial Bridge, and spans an inlet that connects Nantucket Sound with Sengekontacket Pond.

Despite signs prohibiting the activity, thrill seekers are often seen jumping from the span.

Authorities have said no foul play is suspected.

Iraq negotiating over Iran sanctions impact
  • US sanctions on Iran’s energy industry and exports took effect on Monday, November 5.
  • Washington issued formal waivers to eight buyers of Iranian oil, allowing them to continue limited imports. Iraq did not receive a waiver.
  • Iraq’s government is cooperating with the US to contain Iranian influence in the country, and increased Iraqi oil production is helping to make up for Iranian crude that sanctions are blocking from markets, US officials say.
  • Iraq, the second-biggest producer in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, pumped last month at a record 4.78 million barrels a day, former Oil Minister Jabbar Al-Luaibi said on Oct. 20. Iraq exported 3.83 million barrels a day last month, according to tanker tracking and data from port agents.
  • Iraq has been working to restore production at its northern Kirkuk oil field. Kirkuk could add 200,000 barrels a day of oil to Iraq’s total output, Hook said.
  • The country stopped trucking Kirkuk oil to Iran about three weeks ago, in line with U.S. sanctions, according to four people with knowledge of the matter who asked not to be identified because they aren’t allowed to speak to media.
  • Oil exports from Iran, OPEC’s third-largest supplier, have slumped since President Donald Trump announced in May that he’d reimpose sanctions. Iran shipped about 1.76 million barrels a day in October out of 3.42 million in total production, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
  • Benchmark Brent crude fell 47 cents to $72.70 a barrel in London trading at 7:26 a.m. local time. U.S. West Texas Intermediate was 25 cents lower at $62.85 a barrel in New York. WTI held near the lowest level in seven months as concerns of a tightening market eased after the U.S. granted its waivers to buyers of Iranian crude.
