GIGLIO, Italy A helicopter on Sunday airlifted a third survivor from the capsized hulk of a luxury cruise ship 36 hours after it ran aground hotel barcelona ramblas off the Italian coast, as prosecutors said they were investigating the captain for manslaughter charges and accused him of abandoning his ship.
Authorities reduced to 17 from 40 the number of people still unaccounted for, with an Italian who worked in cabin service pulled from the wreckage of the Costa Concordia off the tiny Tuscan island of Grigio. A South Korean couple on their honeymoon were rescued late Saturday in the unsubmerged part of the liner when firefighters heard their screams.
Three people are confirmed dead after the huge cruise ship carrying more than 4,200 people ran aground on Friday night, forcing a chaotic and frightening evacuation. There are now six crew members and 11 passengers who haven't been located, Tuscany's regional president Enrico Rossi said.
Authorities were holding the captain, Francesco Schettino, hotel barcelona ramblas for suspected manslaughter among other possible charges and a prosecutor on Sunday confirmed they are investigating allegations the captain abandoned the stricken liner before all the passengers had escaped.
A French couple who boarded the Concordia in Marseille, Ophelie Gondelle and David Du Pays of Marseille, told The Associated hotel barcelona ramblas Press they saw the captain in a lifeboat, covered hotel barcelona ramblas by a blanket, well before all the passengers were off the ship. They insisted on telling a reporter hotel barcelona ramblas what they saw, so incensed that according to them the captain had abandoned the ship before everyone had been evacuated.
But that wasn't the case. In addition to the three people recovered from on board by rescue crews Saturday night and Sunday, police divers and rescue hotel barcelona ramblas crews on Sunday circled the wreckage searching for more of the 17 missing.
Coast guard spokesman Capt. Filippo Marini told Sky Italia TV that Coast Guard divers have recovered the so-called black box with the recording of the navigational details from a compartment now under water.
A Dutch firm has been called in to help extract the fuel from the Concordia's tanks before any leaks into the area's pristine waters, Rossi, the regional hotel barcelona ramblas president, said. No leaks have so far been reported.
While ship owner Costa has insisted it was following the same route it takes every week between the Italian ports of Civitavecchia and Savona, residents on the island of Giglio said they had never seen the Costa come so close to the Le Scole reefs and rocks that jut out off Giglio's eastern side.
This was too close, too close, said Italo Arienti, a 54-year-old sailor who has worked on the Maregigilo ferry service that runs between the island and the mainland for more than a decade. A now-retired Costa commander used to occasionally do fly-bys hotel barcelona ramblas on the route, nearing a bit and sounding the siren in a special salute for his hometown, he said.
The terrifying escape from the luxury liner was straight out of a scene from Titanic. hotel barcelona ramblas Many passengers complained the crew didn't give them good directions on how to evacuate and once the emergency became clear, delayed lowering the lifeboats until the ship was listing too heavily for many to be released.
Costa Crociera SpA, which is owned by the U.S.-based cruise giant Carnival Corp., defended the actions of its crew and said it was cooperating with the investigation. Carnival Corp. issued hotel barcelona ramblas a statement expressing sympathy that didn't address the allegations of delayed evacuation.
France said two of the confirmed victims were Frenchmen; a Peruvian diplomat identified the third victim as Tomas Alberto Costilla Mendoza, 49, a crewman from Peru. Some 30 people were injured, at least two seriously.
The captain has insisted that the reef was not marked, but locals said that the stretch of sea is not difficult hotel barcelona ramblas to maneuver. Anello Fiorentino, captain of a ferry that runs between Giglio and the mainland, said he makes the crossing every day without encountering problems.
Islanders on Giglio opened up their homes and businesses to accommodate the sudden hotel barcelona ramblas rush of survivors. Rossana Bafigi, who runs a newsstand, said she was really moved by the reaction of the passengers.
hotel barcelona ramblas At Mass on Sunday morning hotel barcelona ramblas in Giglio's main church, which opened its doors to the evacuees Friday night, altar boys and girls brought up to the altar a life vest, a rope, a rescue hotel barcelona ramblas helmet, a plastic tarp and some bread.
