Crew Members Taking Damaged Cruise Ship Back To Port

(Juneau, AK) -- More than 200 passengers have been evacuated from a cruise ship that ran aground off the coast of Alaska. The boat ran into something while sailing in an area called Icy Straits. The ship did take on water for a while, but the pumps were engaged shortly afterwards. The ship isn't in danger of sinking, according to officials with the ship's owner, Majestic America. Crew members remain on board to take the ship back to Juneau.
