Breaking on Fox... Turkish Vessel being escorted by Coast Guard. It had apparently been watched before the threat was relayed.

Thank god Sandy Berger borrowed those documents on port security. Otherwise we never would have thought to search this ship.

/DUer

Just Damn! I hope its not a nuke warhead. Could cause a tidal wave even if detonated in open waters. Ship master is refusing the coast guard boarding.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Well, I bet the Coast Guard has more guns than he does. Bigger ones, too. He may regret that answer.

[looney tune]

Excuse my ignorance of nautical terms - what is the difference between ship's master & captain?

[EvilOverlord]

It is so nice to be able to find a place with fellow news junkies! I don't miss a thing even while at work! What would we ever do without the Internet.

We would work.

Making west coast LA radio news now.......

[Shermy]

I bet Captain's drunk, or smuggling something. Not necessarily a "bomb".

[Dog]

OMG!!!

It went right past me...

[johnfrink]

For those of us unfamiliar with nautical terms--what is the "ship master?"

I think anyone will recognize, though, that it's not a good thing when the captain refuses a boarding party.

[EUPHORIC]

"As per Fox, the Captain is refusing a boarding to allow a search."

Arrgh! Send 'em ta Davey Jones Locker!

[Unknown Freeper]

Ship being escorted off coast - had been tracking movements of it. Reports of a bomb. Captain refusing to let them search. Hmmmm. . .

And the captain really things he'll be allowed here now? And you know this probably is not the only one. Guess things are busy now in Cape May. Stay safe, everyone.

[nwctwx]

nothing I guess... Just relaying exactly what I heard reported.

[WestCoastGal]

Ok why did they let it all the way into the port of Philadelphia if they were watching this ship prior to entering US waters????????

[Dog]

It was in the Port of Phlly..

[Unknown Freeper]

Dog, as soon as I saw this, I thought of you. Be safe down there.

[mystery-ak]

It's not in the bay....off the coast of Delaware.....stay safe!

[Vigilantcitizen]

There's a .45 caliber answer to that problem.

There's also a 5 inch solution to that problem.

[johnfrink]

We'll probably find no bomb but 400 Chinese immigrants in the cargo hold.

[Phantom Lord]

Boatload of Italian tiles?

[Dog Gone]

As per Fox, the Captain is refusing a boarding to allow a search.

Then sink it.
