Over 30 people were injured after a tanker collided with a docked riverboat on the Mississippi River near the Port of New Orleans, officials said Friday.

Axar.az reports, citing ABC News, that early 200 people were on board the cruise ship, American Heritage, when the Atlantic Asphalt tanker collided with it, according New Orleans officials. All have been accounted for, according to New Orleans Mayor Helena Moreno, calling it a "miracle on the Mississippi."

Thirty passengers from the cruise ship and two officers who ended up the water are hospitalized with non-critical injuries, according to officials. No children were involved, authorities said.

The emergency response began midday Friday, when the tanker "lost control and collided into the cruise ship," Moreno said.

"The passengers began disembarking from the ship after that collision. But while that was happening, the cruise ship began to sink, and then eventually, the cruise ship toppled over and flipped," she said at a news conference Friday afternoon. "Now, when that occurred, we started to have people in the water."

Police began helping evacuate passengers, though not everyone was able to get off before the ship began to capsize, authorities said. The remaining passengers were taken onto various boats to get them to safety, and the search and rescue effort is now over, authorities said.
