A man aboard the Norwegian Epic went overboard and a search ensued. Unfortunately, he had not been found and the search was called off.
It seems weird that someone would go overboard a cruise ship, given that it has railings. Either he was doing something incredibly stupid and accidentally went overboard or he intentionally did so.
The ship was en route to Great Stirrup Cay when the incident occurred. I had been on the Norwegian cruise ship, Norwegian Sky, in August and Great Stirrup Cay was one of our stops.
From Fox News:
The frantic search for a Norwegian Cruise Line passenger who went overboard has been called off.
A spokesperson for the cruise line confirmed to Fox News Digital that the 51-year-old went overboard from Norwegian Cruise Line’s Norwegian Epic late Thursday afternoon.
The incident was first noted at approximately 3 p.m. as Norwegian Epic was sailing from Ocho Rios, Jamaica en route to Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas.
The passenger was on the cruise with his family, the spokesperson said. The cruise left from Port Canaveral, Florida on Saturday, Dec. 21 and was a seven-night Western Caribbean voyage.
