Costa Concordia rescue divers forced to stop search
Grounded liner shifts on rocks, prompting fears for stabilityRescue divers have again been forced to abandon their search for passengers on board the grounded Costa Concordia after the vessel shifted on rocks overnight, prompting fears about its stability.
