More pirate attacks repelled by the "Crescent Raven"

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

Last night another freighter chartered by the Intergalactic Mining Company encountered pirates on its flight from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Station in Ord Mantell. The freighter, Captain Ashen Katarna's X-4 "Crescent Raven", was escorted by Corym in a Rhikxyrk Heavy fighter.



The two ships entered the Naboo system through the Penumbra Omen hyperspace jump point, and were attacked by pirate raiders while cooling down their hyperdrives. The escorting fighter was disabled by missile and blaster fire, but the heavily armed and armored "Crescent Raven", guns blazing, managed to shoot down two raiders without taking any damage.

Corym's fighter was towed to the Naboo orbital station by RSF where it is undergoing repairs. The "Crescent Raven" continued towards Ord Mantell and delivered its cargo safely.

IMC shares rose 5 % at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.
