Norwegian Breakaway Passenger Falls 2 Decks

The Bermuda Sun is reporting that a passenger sailing aboard the Norwegian Breakaway fell two decks from her exterior balcony prior to arriving in Bermuda earlier this week.

According to the report, a woman fell two decks and suffered fractured ribs hours before docking in Bermuda on Tuesday. The report states that the woman apparently fell from her balcony, but it is not currently known how she may have fallen.

The woman was initially treated in the medical center aboard the Norwegian Breakaway, before being evacuated from the ship for advanced treatment ashore. A rendezvous with a pilot boat was soon arranged, where the woman was evacuated from the ship on a stretcher. The meet up between the Norwegian Breakaway and the pilot boat took place on Bermuda's east end near St. George's Harbor. Once ashore, the passenger was transferred to a local hospital, where she received additional medical attention for her broken ribs.

The Norwegian Breakaway arrived at her scheduled berth, Dockyard, on time later that day. As of Friday, the woman involved in the accident was still at a local area hospital.
