Warning shots stopped drug smugglers
The "Oceanic 1" was intercepted by Dutch Coast Guard forces in the Caribbean Sea soon after the vessel left Aruba early in the morning of Mar 5, 2016, on suspicion of drug trafficking. The operation, coordinated from Curacao, was launched several days earlier, and involved substantial resources. The vessel was chased by the Dutch patrol boat "Jaguar". After the freighter refused to stop, warning shots had to be fired. The ship was boarded by a Coastguard team. 1200 kilos of cocaine, packed in more than 40 bags, were found. The vessel was taken to Aruba, the seven crew members arrested.
