In the original post on this story we stated the US Coast Guard stresses trailering safety to its officers for good reason. Below is an example of the consequences when it isn&#8217;t.

On the water they used three separate buoyed [...]]]></description>

The below article provides limited information on the circumstances surrounding the shooting, but it reads like the incident was provoked when the Trinidad nationals failed to stop for SVG authorities. We&#8217;ll post additional details if they become available.
Two Trinidadians were shot and wounded in St Vincent and the Grenadines on Monday. The men, Khalid Clarke, [...]]]></description>

A second ship possibly carrying spiders among its cargo, the M/V Stx Alpha, departed from the same South Korean port as the M/V Altavia, and was en route Guam, but has been diverted to Busan Port for fumigation to ensure that no spiders are on board the vessel.  The estimated time of arrival for [...]]]></description>

The word &#8220;miraculous&#8221; scarcely describes the survival of a Santa Maria, California police officer who wrapped his Ford Police Interceptor around a tree Sunday morning. It&#8217;s what the local Police Chief calls the &#8220;worst accident he&#8217;s seen in 35 years.&#8221;

A half hour of boat-to-boat shooting. That&#8217;s a long gunfight. Not sure how all of the pirates were armed, but from the photo above you can see the Bangladesh Coast Guard carries AK-47 style assault rifles as their personal weapon.
