Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the Intergalactic Mining Company sent out Captain Inaera Kell's "Outlaw's Justice", a YT-2400 class light freighter, with a cargo of ore from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Station in Ord Mantell. The ship was escorted by a TIE Advanced piloted by Oneath, courtesy of the Galactic Empire.
The trip passed uneventful until shortly before the two ships were ready to jump from the Naboo system to Ord Mantell. Right then they were attacked near Rori Oribtal Station by an unidentified ARC-170. Both freighter and escorting starfighter reacted quickly however, evading the first volleys of the attacker and shooting it down immediately after it had passed them by.
That a pirate attacked so close to Rori was explained by authorities by the losses the Imperial Navy took in the recent battle at the hyperspace jumppoint Sea of Veruna, which hampered their patrols somewhat in the Rori area.
IMC shares rose 3 % at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.
