21-year-old Cruise Ship Passenger Goes Overboard

On Sunday night, a 21 year old passenger aboard the Allure of the Seas went overboard. The Bartlett, Tennessee woman plunged into the water 47 miles east of Fort Lauderdale, Florida as another passenger saw. When the woman went overboard, the captain of the ship turned around to look for her. Cameras on the cruise caught the woman falling on tape and the ship's GPS system marked the location of her fall. Before the Coast Guard took over the search, two other cruise ships that were nearby stopped by to help with the search. The search area is currently around 320 square miles and four Coast Guard crews are involved.
