A Florida lawyer was just arrested after knocking a 67-year-old passenger unconscious on Norwegian Encore. The victim required CPR from fellow passengers before being hospitalized. The incident started when the passenger told 38-year-old Phillip Ortiz to stay out of a crew area, leading to a verbal confrontation that turned physical. Ortiz now faces aggravated battery charges and has pleaded not guilty. Does this change how you feel about cruise safety?
