Published
A 73-year-old man is missing after falling overboard off a Disney cruise between Australia and New Zealand.
According to 7 News Australia, the man — who hasn’t been publicly identified — fell off the Disney Wonder ship around 4:30 AM local time on Saturday.
A police spokeswoman told the outlet, “It is understood the man died after he jumped from a cruise liner into the waters in the Tasman Sea.”
The crew searched for the missing man for approximately five hours according to reports … and one passenger told 7 News Australia the atmosphere on the ship was “a bit eerie” the rest of the day.
Authorities say they’re not treating the death as suspicious … and the ship is still on its way to Auckland, NZ — though it will now arrive a day behind schedule.
