How did this happen?


One dead in Brit nuke sub horror

By STAFF REPORTER

ONE person has died and another is in a life-threatening condition after a shooting on board the nuclear submarine HMS Astute.

(Pictures carry copyrights imbedded in them.)

The dead man was believed to have been a naval officer serving on the state-of-the art submarine, which is currently docked in Southampton.

Officers arrested a man after the shooting but said the incident was not terror-related and there was no risk to the public.

Several police vehicles were sent to the Eastern Docks at the Hampshire port and officers could be seen on the gangway of the submarine.

The Ministry of Defence referred all calls to the police.

I would hardly call the shooting of two Sailors a "horror". Senseless violence?? Sure.
