Abandoned cargo ship drifts in Atlantic Ocean with burning fire aboard

Authorities on Friday were scrambling to address a massive cargo ship drifting abandoned in the Atlantic Ocean after its crew was forced to deboard due to a major fire.

Footage showed the huge ship in the middle of the open ocean with smoke streaming from its deck. The craft is reportedly carrying Porsches and Bentleys. 

The crew was rescued by the Portuguese Navy after the fire began. None of them was harmed prior to being rescued. 

The ship is set to be towed while the fire is still burning. It was reportedly bound for Texas.
