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

Three days ago a violent incident took place in the Fallen Star cantina in Mos Entha that illustrates the surging gang violence in the crime-riddled city in perfect if brutal detail.

A lethan male twi'lek was attacked in the backroom of the cantina by an animal, on orders of its owner and then left bleeding on the floor, crying for help. When a patron tried to help though he was threatened, and had to back off. Another patron, a female twi'lek, threatened to shoot the wounded man before the police arrived.

The local police agents however left the twi'lek bleeding on the floor as well, after taking a few statements, and continued their patrol. When the cries for help of the wounded twi'lek grew too noisy for some of the more callous patrons another appalling display took place: The crying and at that point cursing twi'lek was dragged outside and thrown down the ramp by the entrance, coming to a rest in the dusty street, where his trace disappears.

Apparently the attack was related to a conflict between two local gangs, but details are unknown. The police is said to be looking for a local doctor though, to question him.
