5 bodies found in liner wreck

Search crews found five more bodies in the wreck of the Costa Concordia cruise ship, which struck a reef off an Italian island in January, officials said yesterday.

The discovery raises to 30 the number of bodies found. Two people remain missing and are presumed dead.

The latest bodies were all found in spaces between the hull and the seabed off the Tuscan island of Giglio, according to the Italian Civil Protection agency, which is coordinating search operations. Since capsizing, the Concordia has been lying on its side.
