A cruise ship has collided with two docked container vessels during strong winds, causing damage that forced the operator to cancel a planned holiday voyage.
No one was injured during the accident. However, the collision caused enough damage to stop the ship from sailing, leaving passengers unable to take their planned trip to the Canary Islands.
German police are now investigating the captain of the cruise ship over a possible breach of duty of care. This investigation will examine whether the captain failed to follow proper safety responsibilities and take necessary precautions to protect others during the severe weather.
