The 57 foot long tugboat Bonnie G. Selvick capsized and sank on the Calumet River at Chicago, Illinois.  The tugboat was attempting to make a turn near the 106th street bridge when it rolled over and capsized.  The tug quickly filled and sank in the river. The two crewmen on board were able escape and swim ashore.  No reports of injuries.  The Coast Guard was notified and deployed booms around the vessel to contain any pollution released.
