South Korea's coast guard is investigating the captain, first officer and an Indonesian crew member of a ferry that ran aground on Wednesday for negligence and suspect the crew left it too late to override the auto pilot, an officer said on Thursday.

All 267 people on board have been rescued from the vessel that ran aground on an uninhabited island near the shore in the southwest of the country.
