Tragic Deaths on Baltic Ferry Spark Murder Investigation

A woman and child have died after falling from a ferry in the Baltic Sea, prompting a murder inquiry by Swedish prosecutors. The victims, a Polish woman born in 1985 and a Polish boy born in 2016, fell from the Stena Spirit ferry while en route from Gdynia, Poland to Karlskrona, Sweden. The Swedish Maritime Administration reported that the child fell from a height of about 65 feet. The investigation aims to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident, and authorities have called for potential witnesses to come forward. In a separate incident, a man died after falling overboard from a ferry in Scotland, but his death is not believed to be suspicious.
