Planet: Corellia
Region: North-East Corellia
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Last night CorSec forces reported a major firefight with what was called an "armed and dangerous criminal gang" near Doaba Guerfel, Corellia. While details were not released, citing an ongoing investigation, sources in the know claimed the criminals had been holed up in a bunker and were involved in smuggling, kidnapping or piracy - or all three.
From what is known at least part of the criminals escaped the CorSec forces, though no wanted notice has been released to the puiblic so far, which caused rumors of a political cover-up taking place.

Inconclusive battle over Iridonia
Date: 050611
Planet: Iridonia System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Last night fleets from the Galactic Empire and the Alliance to Restore the Republic clashed in the Iridonia System. Spearheaded by an Imperial Star Destroyer the Empire's forces, backed by four gunboats, tried to destroy a key orbital station while the Alliance forces holding the planet attempted to take out the flagship of the attacking fleet. Both sides reported that their objective was achieved while decrying the other side's claims as propaganda.
What has been confirmed is that for hours after the battle fighters were still engaged in the system, struggling for space superiority.

"Spectre of the Theatre" opens celebration in River Haven
Date: 050611
Planet: Corellia
Region: River Haven
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Last night the Illusion Theatre in River Haven, Corellia, hosted the play "Spectre of the Theatre", as the opening event of River Haven's 3rd Anniversary celebration.
Sponsored by the Afterburn Racing Company the play by Amul'ette of Holowood fame featured many established and rising stars, with the female lead performed by Rayna and the male leads performed by Lazo Firbyne and Jeevik.
The play's special effects were at times so realistic that they shocked part of the audience. No injuries or overreactions were reported though, not even from those on leave from fighting in the Galactic Civil War.
The play was very well received by the audience, with a standing ovation for the actors. Afterwards the town's celebration started outside the theatre.

A pirate attack was reported on a YT-1300 class freighter that had landed near an imperial listening post two days ago on Lok.

Accident over Ryloth - freighter lost
Date: 050611
Planet: Ryloth System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Two days ago an unidentified Y-8 class freighter broke apart near Ryloth's orbit. No distress call was sent out but at least one escape pod was observed heading towards the planet's surface while the two main pieces left of the freighter started to drift and spin away from the planet. The planetary authority did not mount a rescue mission, citing the lack of adequate orbital facilities and the unidentified nature of the freighter. Unofficially it was assumed that the freighter, likely a spice or slave transport, had not paid the proper bribes.
A shuttle reportedly stolen from a local corporation was detected later on a course headed for the wreck before disappearing from the scanners.

New plots open for development in Crimson Ridge
Date: 020611
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Crimson Ridge
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
Crimson Ridge has opened more plots of lands for development, aimed at any investor or settler interested in building near a shuttleport on Tatooine in an established city. Given the somewhat shady past of the city and its officials, rumors sprung up claiming that the disappearance of the residents who formerly occupied the aforementioned land was not simply due to them moving away, but caused by more sinister means. Governor Dee'lin Sarlo was quoted stating that there was no truth to those rumors of crimes.
His excellency Jabba the Hutt, who was rumored to have a stake in the city, was not available for comment due to an extended meal taking place.

IMC Convoy struck hard by pirates
Date: 310511
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)
Last night the Intergalactic Mining Company sent Captain Britney's YT-2400 class light freighter "Sugar Rush" with a cargo of copper from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Shipyards in the Ord Mantell System. Falcun Nix, Nellari Hoefi and Ahl-Vinn served as escorts.
The convoy reached the Corellia system without incident, but while waiting for the hyperdrives to recharge it was jumped by two pirate ships at the hyperspace jump point "Corellia's Own". All three escorts were lost in the following battle, disabled or shot down, until the "Sugar Rush" was on its own. Despite new gunners - Ozralyyk and Stal Cath - both attackers were shot down and the escort pilots recovered. The freighter safely reached Ord Mantell afterwards.
The following records were taken from the remains of an Astromech found in the debris of one pirate:
IMC shares rose 1% at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.
