A GIRL reportedly fell overboard from a Disney cruise vessel, sparking an urgent rescue mission.
The incident happened when the Disney Dream ship was returning back to Fort Lauderdale, Florida on June 29.
The ship was heading back to Florida as part of a four-day trip to the Bahamas.
Kevin Furuta, a passenger on board the vessel, which can carry up to 3,500 travelers, claimed a girl fell from the fourth deck of the ship.
In a Facebook post, he said the child’s dad jumped into the water in a frantic bid to save his daughter.
Furuta revealed passengers heard the man overboard alarm on the ship’s loudspeaker.
A Disney Cruises official told the Fox affiliate WOFL-TV that two people were rescued from the water swiftly.
“We applaud our Crew Members for their outstanding abilities and swift measures, which secured the quick and safe return of both guests to the ship in just a few minutes,” they stated.
“We are committed to the safety and well-being of our guests, and this incident highlights the effectiveness of our safety protocols.”
The Disney Dream vessel is due to dock in Florida on June 30.
