A cruise passenger identified as Jey Gonzalez-Diaz allegedly leapt from Royal Caribbean's Rhapsody of the Seas as it docked in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on Sunday morning to evade a $16,710.24 (£13,300) casino bill and avoid reporting cash to US authorities; a jet-ski rider rescued him and later arrested him onshore, according to a federal complaint.
Gonzalez-Diaz reportedly leapt into the ocean around 9:15 am local time during a routine inspection by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) now stands accused of attempting to bypass US currency reporting laws while carrying a hefty sum in cash.
