Eight men were in custody last night after running riot on a ferry travelling from Gothenburg, Sweden, to Harwich in Essex. The men, all from the Midlands, set fire to furnishings on the Princess of Scandinavia by igniting aerosol canisters, which scorched cabins. No one was hurt but ferry staff alerted police, who arrested the men when the ferry docked.
