Tug captain found dead in the water
In the night of Dec 17, 2017, the lifeless body of Robert Becuwe, the captain of the "Le Triomphant", was found in the water at the West Port of Dunkirk. The sailor, who was nearing retirement, had just completed a mission during which he was training a young captain. Back at the dock, he informed his colleagues that he was going out to do a telephonse call. His colleagues, not seeing him come back, were worried. They found the victim in the water, near the pontoon where the tug was docked. They failed to resuscitate the captain. An investigation was opened to determine the circumstances of the death.
