It has been reported that a robbery occurred on a supply vessel while transiting to the Maritime Terminal de Dos Bocas, 12nm west of Puerto de Frontera, Centla, Tabasco. The vessel was approached by a boat containing five robbers, armed with guns and knives who boarded the vessel from the port side. The perpetrators held one crew member hostage and injured another crew member, cutting their thumb with a knife and also wounding their left temple. The robbers were looking for money but none was on board so they stole some vessel equipment before fleeing. |
