Krayt sighted near Mos Eisley!

Date: 020508
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Mos Eisley

Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

According to eyewitnesses' reports there were a Krayt Dragon, possibly a female, with a young sighted near Mos Eisley yesterday. Even though the reports are so far unconfirmed, there is great concern about this among the population. Krayts are usually not seen in this area of Tatooine, and the possibility of such ferociuos beasts migrating there is a worrying thought indeed.

Usually, "Krayt Country", as some call the area where Krayts are most often observed, lies further to the north, and contrary to towns such as Mos Carova, Mos Eisley seems unprepared to deal with Krayts.

Speculation about possible reasons for a Krayt to wander so far south is rampant, and some blame the tuskens that earlier set up a camps in the area. The mayor of Mos Eisley has declined to comment further than "so far there hasn't been a confirmed sighting, and if there is we have the situation well in hand".

Since this is the authorities' usual answer when the local crime rate is mentioned, it's not very reassuring according to residents we asked for their opinion.
