Wednesday 21st September, 2005 Indonesian navy kills Chinese fisherman --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Big News Network.com Wednesday 21st September, 2005 (UPI) An Indonesian navy ship fired on a Chinese fishing boat, killing one crewman and injuring two others, the navy said Wednesday. The incident occurred Monday in the Arafura Sea, when the navy vessel came across four boats believed to be fishing illegally, the Jakarta Post reported. Three of the boats fled safely. The navy ship hailed the fourth, which bore a Chinese flag, and fired three shots in the air after it failed to respond and appeared to be attempting to flee, a navy spokesman said. When the fishing boat still did not respond, the ship fired a gun into its side, intending to damage the rotor, the spokesman said. The dead and wounded were discovered when sailors boarded the fishing boat. The ship and crew were all taken to a naval base in the eastern province of Papua. The Chinese Embassy in Jakarta said Wednesday it had been informed of the incident and was confirming the details. http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=fb98ad6abeb721ec ------------------------ Yahoo!
