A gangway collapsed while a Norwegian Cruise Line ship was stopped in Panama on Tuesday, injuring multiple guests.

The line's Norwegian Encore ship was in Panama City at the time. Passengers who sustained injuries were taken to a medical facility nearby, a spokesperson for the cruise line told USA TODAY in an emailed statement. "We have dispatched our CARE Team to Panama City to offer additional support to these guests," the spokesperson said.

The cruise line did not specify how many guests were injured, how severe their injuries were, or provide a reason for the collapse. Norwegian Encore is currently on a 21-day Panama Canal cruise from Seattle to Miami.

The ship will arrive in Miami on Sunday.
