32 people treated in hospital after a tanker struck the American Heritage river cruise ship on the Mississippi in New Orleans

On Friday a tanker collided with American Cruise Lines' American Heritage on the Mississippi River in New Orleans. The ship, carrying 129 passengers plus crew, rolled onto its side within minutes and people ended up in the water. Mayor Helena Moreno said everyone aboard has been accounted for, and 32 people are being treated in hospital, mostly for minor injuries, including two Harbor Police officers who went into the river to pull people out. Please pray for the injured, for the passengers and crew shaken by what they went through, and for the rescuers who helped them.
