Man Arrested for Suspected Manslaughter in UK Ship Collision

A man was arrested by the UK police for unintentional killing after a potential death of one person after two ships collided in the North Sea, according to Sky News. A fixed tanker container was hit by a jet fuel for the American army on Monday off the eastern coast of England.

The UK police issued a statement of Sky News, explaining that they had arrested a 59 -year -old man “on suspicion of unintended murder in neglect in collision.” The man is at detention, but he has not been officially charged yet, according to Sky News.

According to the American fuel tanker, the American fuel tanker was established by the coast of England when the Solong Cargo Portugues (in the above photo) faced around 9:45 am local time on Monday. The collision began with multiple fires and explosions. Thirty -six people have been rescued but one person is missing and assumed dead on Solong, which is said to be allowed to drown.

According to Solong, a port left in Scotland on Sunday and was heading to Rotterdam, the Netherlands. STENA IMMACULATE was 220,000 barrels of jet fuel, according to the Independent. Early reports indicated that Solong might have carried sodium cyanide, a dangerous chemical, but the owners of the ship denied this, according to Sky News. Apparently, confusion arose from the fact that four containers were previously used to carry the chemical but were already empty.

British politicians raised fears that the accident may have “foreign intervention”, although no reason has been determined. The UK’s naval minister, Mike Kane, said it is reasonable to ask the question, but they have not yet known.

Currently, we feel that there is no malicious intention for this incident. However, the marine accident investigation branch will be achieved. “

Certainly it would be more understood if the two ships are moving, but the fact that the pure fuel carrier in STENA was based at the time of collision that has sparked a lot of eyebrows.

Craig Nicholson, chief of investigator of the Hambarside Police, said they will work with the branch of maritime accidents to determine the exact cause of the collision.
