SYDNEY - Australian police have raided the coronavirus-stricken Ruby Princess cruise ship and seized its black box, they said Thursday , as part of a homicide investigation after thousands of passengers were allowed to disembark in Sydney and 15 later died of the illness.
"Police officers entered the Ruby Princess to gather evidence... ships have a black box very similar to international planes and that and other evidence has been seized," NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller told media. Police have launched a criminal investigation into operator Carnival Australia over the circumstances that led to thousands of passengers disembarking in mid-March despite some exhibiting flu-like symptoms.
