Crew member stabbed colleague, jumped over board and died
According to the Royal Bahamas Police Force (RBPF), the unidentified male crew member who died after going overnoard, allegedly stabbed a female co-worker during a dispute. “Shortly before 7:30 p.m., a 28-year-old South African female crew member was allegedly stabbed multiple times by another crew member, a 35-year-old South African male. Following the incident, the male reportedly fled from the scene and jumped into the water. He was retrieved unresponsive and pronounced dead by onboard medical staff. Despite immediately launching a search and rescue mission and finding the crew member in less than an hour, he could not be saved. His alleged victim, despite receiving multiple stab wounds to her upper body, was in stable condition after being attended to by the onboard medical team. An investigation into the attack was underway, and an autopsy will be conducted to determine the deceased crew member’s exact cause of death. Despite the circumstances, the up to 5,610 passengers onboard the world’s largest cruise ship were not in any danger. This was not a random attack, but rather the assault appears to be the result of a disagreement between two crew members. As the 'Icon of the Seas' only had to briefly backtrack to recover the crew member’s body, there was no significant impact to the itinerary.
