A cruise ship passenger on a popular “swim with the pigs” excursion in the Bahamas is suing Norwegian Cruise Line after being bitten by one of the animals, requiring stitches and painful post-exposure treatment to fend off the possibility of developing rabies, according to a civil negligence complaint reviewed by The Independent.
New York resident Jason Gordon had been enjoying a vacation aboard the 4,200-passenger Norwegian Escape last summer when he signed up to participate in the popular activity during a port call at the line’s private island, Great Stirrup Cay, states the complaint, filed August 5 in Miami federal court.
