What happened to the five suspected Somali pirates?
(21) Five suspected Somali pirates were taken into custody Thursday after firing at a U.S. Navy battleship deep in the Indian Ocean, hundreds of miles off the East African coast.
In what appeared to be an ill-conceived attack for ransom, pirates shot small arms rounds at the guided missile frigate USS Nicholas. The Nicholas returned fire, (22) sinking the small pirate skiff and taking its two passengers into custody. The Nicholas crew also captured two suspected pirates onboard the pirates’ nearby mothership. A third pirate skiff fled the scene.
Pirates usually operate from small motor boats they launch from "motherships"—typically much larger boats they’ve either stolen or highjacked. (23) Motherships carry supplies and fuel, giving pirates the ability to operate much farther from the well patrolled coastline.
