International teams searching for a submersible missing near the wreck of the Titanic are zeroing in on unidentified noises detected underwater as the five-man crew runs out of air.
Remotely operated vehicles have been moved to where the sounds were heard and more search equipment will be deployed as it arrives, US Coast Guard Captain Jamie Frederick said at a briefing in Boston on Wednesday. The noises have been picked up in the past two days by a Canadian aircraft with sonar devices.
