Coast Guard officials identified the two victims of a fishing accident near Bodega Bay. Lt. Michael Sullivan said Tina S. Jung, 27, of Richmond was dead on arrival at a Sebastopol hospital after she was retrieved unconscious from the chilly ocean waters into which she had fallen while fishing. Her companion, Gerald K. Yhnaba of Oakland, reportedly went into the water to try to save Jung and is missing and presumed dead, Sullivan said. “Witnesses said the man took off his jacket and jumped in to try to reach her,” Sullivan said. The couple were fishing from rocks at Duncan’s Landing near Bodega Bay, north of San Francisco.
