The cruise ship Costa Concordia, carrying more than 4,200 passengers and crew, ran aground and capsized off the Tuscan island of Giglio as dinner was being served. It is now precariously lying on its side on an undersea ledge, half-submerged and threatening to slide into deeper waters.
Diving crews resumed search operations on Saturday, but hopes of finding anyone alive have all but gone. The ship's Captian is under house arrest, accused of multiple manslaughter, causing a shipwreck and abandoning ship before all passengers were evacuated. Our condolences go out to the families and friends of the victim's.
