A crewmember was attacked aboard Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas in a recent incident that has gone viral online.

The incident, which occurred on Saturday, Dec. 6, shows the crewmember, a lifeguard, allegedly trying to direct passengers away from an outdoor deck area.

The passengers — many of whom were in swim attire — can be seen angrily attempting to get in the crewmember’s face as he backs away from the heated argument. A scuffle breaks out and the lifeguard appears to be hit and knocked to the ground.

At least one passenger was injured after viral video online shows acrylic glass panel of water slide on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas suddenly shattering while he was inside, media outlets reported Friday.

The incident happened Thursday and the man was treated for injuries by the ship’s medical staff, the cruise line said in a statement to media. The severity of the man’s injuries was not immediately available Friday.

Videos of the aftermath have gained traction online showing passengers screaming to lookouts on the slide, warning them that there was a gaping hole spouting water in the acrylic drop slide. The ship — which set sail from Port Miami on Aug. 2 — closed off the slide for the remainder of the voyage while officials conduct an investigation into how this could have occurred.
