Man rescued in Fla. after falling from cruise ship

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - A man found clinging to a buoy after falling from a cruise ship in coastal Florida has been rescued.

The Coast Guard says 46-year-old Larry Miller told them he went overboard from the Carnival Inspiration early Monday morning while it was returning to the Port of Tampa. He was found a few hours later clinging to a buoy near the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in the St. Petersburg area.

He was brought to the hospital with minor injuries.

The Coast Guard is investigating, but a spokesman says it isn't clear how Miller went overboard. There was no report of a missing person from the cruise ship.
