Rescuers save family adrift at sea for 6 days

Rescuers spotted a family of four who had been lost at sea for six days and helped them safely to shore in the Pacific island nation of Kiribati, authorities said.
Teams from the U.S. Coast Guard and the Royal New Zealand Air Force found the family Saturday.
They had gone missing October 31 after setting sail from Kiribati in a four-meter (13-foot) aluminum boat, Maritime New Zealand said in a statement.
