Yacht Attacked by Pirates off Venezuela - Dog Shot



15 Jul

Trinidad - A couple from Manchester, UK have been raided by pirates off the coast of Venezuela.  Peter and Betty Lee were sailing up to the Caribbean on their second time 'round, when what looked like a fishing boat approached their yacht Raven Eye at high speed.  A shot was fired, and Peter rammed the attacking vessel broadside, knocking down the leader of the five bandits.  When the pirate stood up and fired directly at Peter, Lee realized he had to surrender.  Kankuntu, the couple's dog, then attacked the boarders, who shot and stabbed the faithful animal.
