Cargo Ship Runs Aground in Norwegian Garden, Narrowly Avoids Home
- A 135-meter container ship named NCL Salten ran aground near Johan Helber's house in Byneset, Trondheim, Norway, early on Thursday morning at around 5am local time.
- The cause of the ship running aground is unknown, and Norwegian police have launched an investigation with no current suspicion of drugs or alcohol involvement.
- Despite the ship coming within metres of Helber's fjord-side wooden home, he was asleep during the incident and was later alerted by a neighbor who rang his doorbell repeatedly and called on the phone.
- The ship had 16 crew members of various nationalities onboard, none of whom were injured, and authorities plan to refloat the vessel at high tide as confirmed by local officials and the ship's managing director.
- Helber referred to the ship as a large and imposing presence nearby but expected it to depart shortly, while the operator described the situation as a serious incident and expressed gratitude that no injuries occurred.
