Recruit Ashfield submitting first report.
Today I perfomed a patrol alongside Ensign Arthur Crawler. He jumped into Texas system in order to check any ships beaking the trade embargo. We didn't have to wait that much until we found one, Sandhawk(Attached data). At first, he tried to run, but once we disrupted the ship's engines a few times, the pilot decided to stop. It took us some time to deal with him because he was refusing to drop the cargo, but in the end, a LABC captain arrived (Cerberus.Mike, who was also complaining about certain points in Crawler's behaviour, though I didn't pay much attention). So, the trader dropped the cargo and was moved for further inspection.
While patrolling New York's lanes, I came across a pilot named Veera Allen, who was sitting near one of the lanes to Fort Bush -from Norfolk-. She didn't show any aggressive behaviour, so after using 'reverse psychology' for a few minutes, I managed to make her move away from the lanes. Nothing relevant.
Some time later, Ensigh Crawler reported unlawful activity in Colorado, near the New York Jump Gate. 2 Xeno Alliance ships, one Tridente and one Bayonet were shooting at each other. Sadly, I couldn't arrive in time and Crawler's ship was shot down by the Bayonet, though I could get his pod. Immeadiately after, I jumped into the fight, setting my priority on the Tridente . One of the Xenos got shot down, so the other one (A Roc) kept shooting at the Gunboat too, which was finally destroyed (Attached data). Then, I focused the fire on the Bayonet, whose hull was blasted (Attached data). By that time, Ross and Turner also arrived at Colorado, awaiting for my back-up call if needed. In the end, the Xeno managed to escape through the dense asteroid fields.
