Accident with Danube cruise ship in Austria. Eleven passengers were slightly injured in an accident involving a river cruise ship on the Danube during the night.
The ship came from Passau and was on its way to Budapest with 142 passengers, mostly from Germany, as the police in Upper Austria reported. The accident happened in a lock in Aschach an der Donau. The only damage to the lock was caused by concrete abrasion. The cruise ship therefore continued towards Linz.
