Two fugitive Crystal Cruise ships, the Crystal Serenity and the Crystal Symphony, were arrested and taken into custody near Freeport, Bahamas on Friday, according to Cruise Law News and Insider.
A video posted to Twitter shows the captain of the Crystal Symphony citing unpaid fuel bills as the reason for the arrest, before noting that the seizure was “actually quite expected.”
“The ship has been placed under arrest by the local authorities over some unpaid bills, and as bad as it sounds it’s actually quite a good thing to happen,” the captain is heard saying in the video.
