Post by: Host Mike on November 15, 2018, 04:47:12 PM

"A 52-year-old American woman aboard a Princess Cruises ship sailing in the Caribbean died Tuesday in what authorities are treating as a possible murder case, according to several news outlets in the region.

Aruba-based Diario reports the woman plunged from an upper deck of the 3,600-passenger Royal Princess onto a lifeboat after struggling with a man who was seen choking her. Another Aruba-based outlet, MasNoticia.com, reports authorities are investigating the incident as a possible murder case.

The ship was sailing between the islands of Curacao and Aruba at the time of the incident."

During our CB B2B during Nov there were hardly any people who heard the news about the incident, even the crew.
The news feed on their Fox link only broadcast some highlights from time to time.
