Two people fell overboard on a Baltic Sea ferry between Sweden and Poland and were found a short time later during a major rescue operation. A seven-year-old child fell into the water from the “Stena Spirit” ferry on Thursday afternoon and his mother then jumped after it, rescue director Anders Lännholm told Sweden’s TT news agency.
So the ferry was about halfway between Karlskrona in southern Sweden and Gdansk in Poland. In addition to rescue helicopters and the ferry itself, NATO troops who were in the area for an exercise also took part in the search.
In the early evening, the mother and her child were found in the water, the Swedish shipping authority reports to various Swedish media. One person has been lifted by helicopter and on its way to hospital, another helicopter is on its way to pick up the other person, a spokesman for the authorities told Swedish broadcaster SVT. It was unclear at the time what happened to the two. (SDA)
