MIAMI (WSVN) - A cruise ship crossed paths with a group of migrants on a dangerous open-water journey. Then the crew came to their rescue.
Hundreds of passengers aboard the Carnival Celebration clapped and cheered as crew members rescued a group of migrants on Saturday.
The ship’s crew had spotted the migrants’ tattered vessel about 20 miles north of Cuba as they were heading back to PortMiami.
Passengers gathered along the deck as the ship made a turn to help the 20 people crammed into the tiny boat.
