“Bad day for pirates” video upsets some
Written by Nick BlenkeyA video uploaded on Liveleaks.com and said to be taped in the Indian ocean 120 miles off Somalia, shows what the site calls Somali pirates having a “very bad day.”
A report by Bloomberg says the incident occurred March 25 and involved the second hijacking attempt within three days on Eagle Bulk Shipping’s Avocet.
The video footage was captured by a helmet cam by one member of the four member security team, provided by Virginia Beach, Va,, based Trident Group , Inc.
The Bloomberg report (with much second-guessing on the team’s action from people who weren’t being shot at with AK47’s and RPG’s) can be accessed HERE.
