Master charged for not reporting accident immediately

The "Mia B" was refloated in the afternoon of July 6 and returned to the port of Frederiksværk where was now investigated regarding damage to the hull. On July 5 a tug in vain had tried to pull the ship off the sand and mud flats it was stuck on. Subsequently a dredging vessel started to dig a trench to the ship, and a larger tug finally succeeded S to pull the ship free. It was berthed in port around 8 p.m. The Police Nordsjælland had sent a boat from Hundested to question the captain of the "Mia B" and check if he was intoxicated. Though this was not the case, he was charged with not having alerted the authorities immediately after the grounding but only an hour later. The Marinehjemmeværnet in Hundested had sispatched the "MHV 905 Askø" after the alert at 8.35 p.m. Danish report with photo: http://www2.hjv.dk/nyheder/Pages/Tyskfragtskibgrundst%C3%B8dt.aspx
