สิ่งที่เราทราบในตอนแรก

• How did a tanker strike a passenger boat that had already been docked for about two hours? That is the central unanswered question after the Atlantic Asphalt hit the American Heritage in New Orleans, leaving the cruise boat overturned and largely underwater. Officials said everyone aboard both vessels was accounted for and reported no deaths. More than 30 people needed hospital care. The rescue succeeded; the explanation for the collision is still missing.
