A man is being treated at the hospital after falling five stories onto a lower deck of a cruise ship from Key West.

The man's condition is not yet known. A Miami-Dade Fire Rescue spokeswoman says he fell from the eighth story onto a wooden deck. He was then transported to the trauma center at Jackson Memorial Hospital.

The Norwegian Cruise Line's Majesty ship was headed to Charleston, South Carolina, when the accident happened. The man was picked up about ten miles from Government Cut.

Witnesses told authorities he seemed intoxicated and was combative when authorities arrived.
