Cargo Ship Runs Aground in Norwegian Garden, Narrowly Avoids Home
- A 135-meter Cypriot-flagged container ship named NCL Salten ran aground near Johan Helber's fjord-side house in Byneset, Trondheim, Norway, at about 5 a.m. On Thursday.
- The ship went off course while traveling southwest through Trondheim Fjord to Orkanger, but the exact cause remains unknown as police launched an investigation.
- Mr Helber slept through the incident and was only alerted when a panicked neighbor repeatedly rang his doorbell and called to warn him about the ship.
- The ship missed Mr Helber's house by just a few meters, and the 16 crew members aboard were unharmed, with the head of NCL calling it a "serious incident" but expressing gratitude no one was injured.
- Authorities plan to refloat the ship at high tide, and the unresolved cause suggests ongoing investigations while the ship remains a bulky temporary neighbor.
