Coast Guard Searching for Royal Caribbean Passenger
The United States Coast Guard is still searching for a man who jumped off the deck of the Oasis of the Seas just after midnight on Friday morning. The ship was on a week-long cruise in the eastern Caribbean and was traveling close to Turks and Caicos when the man went overboard from the seventh-deck of the ship, the Coast Guard said.
In an email to the Sun-Sentinel, Royal spokesperson Cynthia Martinez said that the man was spotted intentionally going over the side of the ship and clinging to a lifeboat before dropping to the water. The ship is still scheduled to return to Port Everglades on Saturday.
