Norwegian Man Wakes to Find Container Ship in His Garden
A 135-meter cargo ship, the NCL Salten, ran aground in Byneset, Norway, narrowly missing a house by several meters. Johan Helberg, the homeowner, was alerted by a neighbor who witnessed the ship’s approach. The Cypriot-flagged vessel, carrying 16 crew members, was traveling through the Trondheim Fjord when it veered off course; no injuries were reported. Authorities are investigating the cause of the incident, which follows a previous grounding incident earlier in 2023.
