Several people were injured when an “extreme” gust of wind rocked a cruise ship leaving New York City late Sunday night, sending objects — and people — flying to one side of the ship, according to reports.

Norwegian Cruise Line confirmed that its Norwegian Escape cruise encountered a “sudden, extreme gust of wind” at 100 knots (or approximately 115 miles per hour) and began to tilt toward its port side.
