No passengers or crew members were killed or critically hurt after the crash on the Mississippi River, officials say
In what the city’s mayor declared a “miracle on the Mississippi”, all passengers were accounted for – with none killed or critically hurt – after a tanker collided with a river cruise ship docked on the Mississippi River in New Orleans on Friday afternoon.
Thirty-two people were taken to local hospitals after the Atlantic Asphalt tanker struck American Cruise Lines’s American Heritage at about 12.30pm – but none of their injuries were considered critical, New Orleans’s mayor, Helena Moreno, said at a news conference.
