MIAMI (AP) 鈥� The U.S. Coast Guard says a third child has died nearly a week after a barge struck and sank a boat during a sailing camp near Miami.

All six people on the sailboat were pulled from the water after the collision, and four kids were rushed to a hospital where two were pronounced dead last Monday.

A 10-year-old girl who was in critical condition died on Sunday, according to a Coast Guard statement.

鈥淥ur hearts continue to mourn with all those impacted by Monday鈥檚 tragic incident, especially with the passing of another one of Miami鈥檚 children today,鈥� Coast Guard Capt. Frank Florio said.

Officials didn鈥檛 immediately identify any of the victims or release a cause for the crash. Salvage operations began Tuesday.

鈥淭he Coast Guard remains committed to conducting a thorough investigation to ensure all facts are uncovered,” Florio said.

The collision between a barge and the sailboat occurred in Biscayne Bay, between Miami and Miami Beach. Everyone on the sailboat, a teenage sailing camp counselor and five children, ended up in the water. They were in their last week of a camp for children aged 7 to 15, according to the Miami Yacht Club.

A 7-year-old girl and a 13-year-old girl were pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospital. An 8-year-old girl was in critical condition as of Tuesday. A 19-year-old woman and a 12-year-old girl were rescued but not hospitalized.

Across the U.S. last year, there were over 550 deaths in recreational boating, but only a sliver of those 鈥� 43 鈥� were caused by vessels crashing into each other, according to Coast Guard statistics.
