Ambush in Corellia System foiled

Date: 090611
Planet: Tatooine/Corellia System/Ord Mantell System
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station

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

Three days ago three freighters left Tatooine for Ord Mantell in a convoy for the Intergalactic Mining Company, transporting copper from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Shipyards in the Ord Mantell System. The convoy was led by Captain Dee'lin Sarlo in her YT-1300 "Phoenix", followed by Captain Britney's YT-2400 class light freighter "Sugar Rush" and captain Batair Highlander piloting the TTC-Tencilia, another YT-2400 class. The convoy was escorted by Ycoga Redspine in an Incom T-60 "X-Wing"

When the convoy reached the hyperspace jump point Corellia's Own in the Corellia system it was attacked by two pirates. Ycoga immediatedly attacked the raiders, taking damage but shoowing down one and keepoing the other engaged until the three freighters took it down with combined blaster fire. The convoy then continued to Ord Mantell.
