A juice tanker called on Bermuda over the weekend to drop off an injured crewman, according to Bermuda Maritime Operations.

The refrigerated orange juice tanker Orange Ocean diverted on Saturday and sent ashore a 43-year-old officer yesterday with a thumb injury that needed surgery.

The 43-year-old Ukrainian was brought to Ordnance Island aboard the pilot vessel St David shortly before 5pm.

The tanker, en route to Brazil from Newark, New Jersey, continued on its way.
