ROME (AP) — The Italian news agency ANSA is quoting rescuers as finding two survivors alive and in good condition in a cabin aboard a cruise liner that ran aground off Tuscany a day earlier.

ANSA said fire department rescuers found two Asians in a cabin inside the liner late Saturday night and were bringing out the survivors.

Fire officials couldn’t immediately be reached for comment near the tiny island of Giglio, where the Costa Concordia went aground and turned on its side Friday night, leaving three people dead and forcing some 4,000 aboard to evacuate.
