Crew Members Rejoin Cruise Ship
From a Times Staff Writer
Nineteen crew members injured in a gas leak Friday aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise liner were released from the hospital Saturday, and all but one returned to the ship to begin a voyage along the Baja coast, a spokesman for the cruise line said.
Three crew members were killed by hydrogen sulfide gas in a sewage pipe they were trying to repair aboard the Monarch of the Seas.
One injured crew member remained in a hotel Saturday for observation, said cruise line spokesman Michael Sheehan.
