A rescue mission was initiated on Thursday following a potential overboard incident involving a Carnival Cruise Line vessel. The alert prompted the crew of the Carnival Radiance to spring into action near Ensenada, Mexico.
The cruise line informed Fox News Digital that “the ship is returning to the location of a possible sighting of an individual in the water to carry out a rescue operation.”

The Carnival Radiance regularly travels between Long Beach, California, and Ensenada, which lies approximately 75 miles south of the U.S.-Mexico border near San Diego.
Efforts to reach out to the U.S. Coast Guard for more information have been made by Fox News Digital.

“The ship returned to PortMiami (the Port of Miami) as planned on Saturday morning, Nov. 8, and the FBI has advised that there is no related threat to safety aboard as it sails its current voyage,” a Carnival spokesperson previously told Fox News Digital.
