"Liberty's Envoy" sends pirates packing

Date: 250510
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station

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

Last night the Yt-1300 class light freighter "Liberty's Envoy", captained by Ockeko, transported ore for the Intergalactic Mining Corporation from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion shipyards in Ord mantell.

The freighter was fying without escorts, but had a full crew - especially experienced gunners Falcun Nix and Batair Highlander. That was fortunate since the "Liberty's Envoy" was attacked by a Vaksai heavy fighter and an ARC-170 near Penumbra's Omen in the Naboo system.



The freighter took evasive action and the two unidentified raiders gave chase. In the following fight both attackers were damaged by turret fire and left behind while the "Liberty's Envoy" got away to deliver her cargo to the Nova Orion Station in Ord Mantell.

IMC shares rose 2% at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.
