Rescue workers swarmed to the banks of the Danube in Budapest after a river cruise boat capsized. (AFP photo)BUDAPEST - Three people died and 16 were missing Wednesday after a river cruise boat capsized in Budapest and sank in the Danube, Hungarian public television said, quoting the interior ministry. Divers were searching for the missing passengers, but heavy rain in recent weeks created high water levels, making it more difficult for them. The boat was carrying 32 passengers and two crew on a very popular part of the river for pleasure trips. Authorities blocked off access to the accident site, M1 reported.
