Italian firefighters on Saturday continued searching for 21 people who went missing a week ago when the Costa Concordia cruise ship flipped over."We still hope that there is someone alive and maybe someone already returned home and didn't show up," said Coast Guard spokesman Filippo Marini. "We will continue the search until we are absolutely sure there is nobody left inside."RELATED:7 Israelis rescued after Italian ship runs agroundItaly's 'Titanic': Photos from the disaster
At least 11 were killed in the tragedy, after its captain, Francesco Schettino, reportedly steered the ship too close to a reef. Schettino was arrested on charges of manslaughter, causing a shipwreck and abandoning ship, Italian police said.
