Crew Member on Norwegian Breakaway Cruise Ship Falls Overboard Off Massachusetts Coast
Rescue boats, a helicopter and Provincetown crews joined the search after the fall was seen on security camera, officials said.
- Late Saturday, a crew member fell from the Norwegian Breakaway cruise ship about 12 miles east of Wellfleet, Massachusetts, prompting the U.S. Coast Guard to initiate a search after security cameras captured the fall.
- The ship returned to the last known location, deploying rescue boats and life rings to assist, while Norwegian Cruise Line officials paused the Boston-bound voyage to cooperate with maritime authorities.
- Passengers reported hearing a "Code Oscar" alert before feeling the ship make a sharp turn, and passenger Anna Flowers said the captain confirmed the incident, prompting a moment of silence for the crew member who allegedly jumped.
- The Breakaway arrived at Boston's Black Falcon Terminal Sunday, where embarkation was delayed, as the company stated the safety and well-being of its crew remains the highest priority.
- Investigators are working to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident, as the name of the crew member has not been released and authorities continue to scan the area east of Cape Cod for the missing individual.
