(中央社休士顿13日综合外电报导)美国新奥尔良市长莫雷诺表示,一艘油轮今天疑似转向失灵,撞上一艘停靠码头的河轮,河轮搭载180名乘客与船员。据报船上所有人全数生还,32人送医,但无人伤势危急。

美联社报导,事故发生后,河轮开始进水逐渐倾覆,乘客与船员落入密西西比河,引发大规模救援行动,所幸船上所有人全数生还。

现场影片显示,体型大得多的「大西洋沥青号」油轮撞上河轮「美国传承号」,船体金属与玻璃被撞碎。

拖船操作人员、附近工人、警方及其他多名救援人员赶赴协助。莫雷诺(Helena Moreno)称这是「密西西比河上的奇迹」。

莫雷诺表示有32人送医,但无人伤势危急。

河轮在几分钟内开始倾斜,并在救难人员仍设法将所有人撤离船只时翻覆。数十名船上人员和至少两名员警被从摄氏19度的河水中拉上附近船只。

目击者佛兰纳根(Devon Flanagan)说:「现场一片混乱。各式各样的船只,包括其他驳船及不同公司的船只都赶来帮忙,但也让情况有点复杂,因为当时水里还有人。」

这艘河轮于2015年建造,由美国邮轮公司营运,船高5层,最多可搭载150名乘客。

「美国传承号」当时正结束为期8天的航程,沿途造访路易斯安那州和密西西比州多个密西西比河沿岸地点。
