A FRANTIC was launched for a cruise ship passenger who went over board on the way to the Bahamas.
The search was abandoned on Thursday night after a 51-year-old man, who has not been named, fell overboard at approximately 3pm earlier that day.
The man had been on board Norwegian Cruise Line’s boat Norwegian Epic, sailing northbound from Ocho Rios, Jamaica, to the Bahamas when he went overboard.
A spokesperson for Norwegian Cruise Line told the Daily Mail: “The authorities were immediately notified, and a search and rescue operation under the guidance and oversight of the Bahamas Rescue Coordination Center went underway.”
