The three missing people are a client couple, a man in his 40s and a woman in her 50s from outside the province, and a male tour guide in his 20s living in Yonaguni Town.
3人は昨日午前10時半ごろに出発し、洞窟内を通常2時間半ほどかけて徒歩で巡るツアーに参加していましたが、予定時間になっても戻ってきませんでした。　
The three left yesterday around 10:30 a.m. for a walking tour of the caves, which usually takes about 2.5 hours, and did not return at the scheduled time. 　
洞窟で何が起きたのでしょうか。　
What happened in the cave?
「そこの洞窟ばかりをガイドするガイドなので、道に迷うってことは考えにくい。足が挟まれるか、何らかの原因で動けない状態になった。だから、そこで止まっているという可能性ですね」　
"Since the guide has experience taking people through the caves there, it's hard to imagine him getting lost. Maybe his leg is stuck or can't move for some reason. So maybe he had to stop there."
警察は先ほど、女性客と男性ガイドが自力で洞窟から脱出したと明らかにしました。
Recently, the police said that the female guest and the male tour guide escaped from the cave on their own.
残る男性客の捜索をこれから行うということです。
The search for the remaining male customers will begin.
