Alien
Crew member jumps ship

Canadian Border Services agents and police officers are on the lookout for a man who jumped ship in Saint John late Monday. Police say a crew member of a ship loading potash failed to return to the vessel. When a person leaves a ship illegally, the shipping company has to post a $25,000 bond to defer the costs of searching for him, said Laurie Gillmore, a spokeswoman for Canadian Border Services. If the person returns to the ship then the bond is returned. There is a legal way to enter the country so when people flout those rules, it is taken very seriously, she said.
