The death toll from the cruise ship disaster on China's Yangtze River has risen to 331, even as rescue teams continue to search for more bodies.
According to Fox News, the overturning of the Eastern Star ship has been attributed to sudden and severe winds by the authorities.
The surviving captain of the ship and his first engineer have been taken into police custody for questioning.
Relatives of the passengers have questioned whether the ship should have continued its cruise after the storm started in a section of Hubei province and despite a weather warning earlier in the evening.
The boat had more than 450 people aboard, many of them elderly tourists, for a cruise from Nanjing to the southwestern city of Chongqing.
