Viewings Being Held For Two Men Killed in Boat Crash With Jose Fernandez

Family and friends of the two men killed in a tragic boat crash along with Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez will begin saying goodbye to their loved ones Tuesday.

The viewings for both Eduardo Rivero and Emilio Macias will take place at 6 p.m. at separate funeral homes in Hialeah.

The friends, who graduated from Braddock High School in 2009, accompanied Fernandez late Saturday night into the early hours of Sunday morning before getting on the pitcher’s boat. None of the men were wearing life vests at the time of the accident and were thrown from the boat when it hit the jetty along Government Cut shortly after 3 a.m.
