Tipped ship probe begins

A PROBE has been launched after 35 people were injured when a US Navy ship tipped over in a dry dock.

The major incident took place at Imperial Dock in Leith, Edinburgh, on Wednesday when the Petrel ship became dislodged from its holding in strong winds and was left leaning at a 45-degree angle.

As of yesterday, seven people were still being treated five at NHS Lothian hospitals and two in NHS Fife hospitals.
