Bomb Incident in the Lucky Despot

Date: 280810
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Mos Eisley

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

Last night the visitors at the Lucky Despot casino in Mos Eisley were shaken when a dispute literally exploded into violence. While details are not fully known, an as of yet unidentified zabrak male allegedly ended up in a dispute with several of the patrons and entertainers, and was stunned after drawing a blaster.



When he came to, back in his seat, he threatened the people present with a detonator in his hand, causing a trooper present on the scene to call for reinforcements to handle the situation. When negotiations stalled the zabrak was charged and subdued before he could use the detonator.



However at this point a man later referred to as "Frogoo" threw another grenade at the troopers, severly wounding one soldier and one bystander before getting subdued himself. The reasons for this action are not known, but he was wounded and had earlier already refused treatment by a combat medic present on the scene - ironically, one of the people wounded by the explosion. Who exactly had wounded him - tortured according to some of his claims earlier - is not clear either.

After "Frogoo" was subdued as well and the civilian casualties evacuated the two suspects were taken to the detainment facility in Bestine. All wounded, among them MSG Patryn Starfire of Operational Detachment Aurek 613, are expected to make a full recovery.
