The Carnival Cruise Line ship Magic was approaching New York when it happened. On the nightclub dance floor, the significant others of the three people who hooked up objected to the cheating and took action. They started a brawl that ended up involving dozens of people, spanned multiple floors, and required security to contact the Coast Guard to accompany the ship to the port in Manhattan.
The fight took place on the dance floor within a nightclub on the ship, police confirm. At the time, the ship was near the Verrazano Bridge and it is so far unclear if the incident took place within International Waters or will fall within “New Jersey jurisdiction” or “NYPD purview.”
Authorities are continuing to investigate after a brawl broke out on a cruise ship early Tuesday morning in New York.
The NYPD told PEOPLE that they were alerted of a dispute aboard the Carnival Magic cruise ship around 5:21 a.m. Tuesday.
The fight took place on the dance floor within a nightclub on the ship, police confirm. At the time, the ship was near the Verrazano Bridge and it is so far unclear if the incident took place within International Waters or will fall within “New Jersey jurisdiction” or “NYPD purview.”
“Security onboard the boat attempted to de-escalate the situation and subsequently called for the Coast Guard,” the NYPD said. “The Coast Guard escorted the cruise ship to Pier 88, confines of the MTN Precinct. Uniformed personnel and Traffic Agents met the ship and the ship disembarked passengers without further incident.”
The fight first began between two people before others joined in and grew in size, the NYPD told PIX 11. The outlet said that according to officials, by the time the fight was broken up anywhere from 40 to 60 people were involved.
Though the NYPD first described the stop as an emergency docking, PIX 11 reported, Carnival said in a statement to the station that the stop was already scheduled.
Given the size of cruise ships and how they are arranged, that was one heck of a fight.
