Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
A few days ago, a routine patrol/search of the Mos Eisley Cantina was conducted by the local garrison. Despite initial trouble with possibly drunk crowds which neccessitated sending in back up, a suspected rebel officer was arrested and escorted to the star port.
Back at the cantina, emerging insurgents managed to whip the crowd into a frenzy and direct it against the soldiers in a successful attempt to free the prisoner. In the process a member of the attacking crowd was stunned and taken prisoner though, and evacuated with an Imperial transport.
Shortly after reaching orbit, however, the transport was intercepted by a YT-1300 broadcasting the ID "XT-321" to the local traffic control, escorted by a kimogila heavy fighter and an ARC-170. In a short fight, the imperial transport was disabled, and forced to surrender the prisoner before reinforcements could arrive.
The Imperial Fleet did not comment on this incident, but unofficially, officers claimed that due to heavy activity in Deep Space, local patrols and ready forces had been reduced, allowing rebels and criminals more freedom to operate.
