A tragedy occurred on Saturday night aboard a Stena Line ferry travelling from Belfast to a Scottish village. At around 6pm, the Superfast VIII vessel approached its destination of Loch Ryan Port in Cairnryan when a man went overboard.
In response to the 'man overboard' incident, Stena Line initiated their emergency response procedures, including the launch of their onboard fast response craft. The alarm was also raised with the coastguard and Police Scotland.
Unfortunately, the man was taken to University Hospital Ayr and pronounced dead. The exact details of the incident remain unclear, but the police are carrying out a full investigation. According to Police Scotland, there are no suspicious circumstances and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
At around 8.30pm, the Stena Line vessel resumed its sailing schedule. Our thoughts go out to the family of the deceased during this difficult time.
