BUDAPEST – Police said the captain of a vessel that collided with a small tour boat on the Danube River in Budapest, resulting in at least seven deaths was arrested.
The 64-year-old Ukrainian national was held as a suspect over reckless misconduct.
The boat carrying South Korean tourists sank seven seconds after the collision during a rainstorm on Wednesday.
Hopes have faded that any of the 21 people missing will be found alive.
An ambulance spokesman said seven people rescued alive suffered from hypothermia but were now stable. (BBC)
