ROME (AP) - Italian authorities say divers searching the capsized Costa Concordia have found what appears to be four more bodies on the cruise ship.

The civil protection agency, which is monitoring the operation, said the bodies were found Wednesday but it will take some time before they are recovered.

The Concordia struck a reef near the Tuscan island of Giglio on Jan. 13 and capsized. Seventeen bodies from the ship have been found and 15 others listed as still missing.
