This report supplements Officer Casero's report on Diamond Black and includes the events of my patrols afterward.
I will not go into too much detail as Casero already pointed out in his report. I was on patrol near the Bering gate when the transport Solar.Angel began a distress signal. We heard gunshots, people screaming and the assailant who is Diamond Black laughing. We rushed toward the coordinates of the distressed ship where hundreds of passengers and prisoners were held hostage by the pirate. We tried to ask him to give it up, however he was too close to planet Chisos as Casero already mentioned. We allowed the pirate to leave in return for the control of the transport, however he set the ship into crashing into the sun. We pursued however, the transport was destroyed. Casero and I quickly began rescue efforts but they were not enough to save all of the people that died on the transport. The injured are at Houston Medical Center.
After we settled back into patrols, I receieved a comm message by an Alexander.Shaw who worked for DSE. We talked for a while on the secure comms of the incident and he also knew this Diamond Black. He told me that he was in a small ship of unknown type and had "animals" in his cargo hold. Mr.Shaw also told me that he was heading toward the Border Worlds and away from Liberty. An extremely disturbing fact that Mr. Shaw also mentioned was that Diamond Black may be part of a cult of some kind. Several other ships have been attacked by people such as this and said that they wear black robes with a strange "red overgrown animal in the middle". I am questioning Diamond Black's sanity, and if he is seen by any officers, to use extreme caution when dealing with this man. It was a pleasure working with Casero even though the outcome was unfortunate and hope to see him in space again.
The rest of the day included a continued stay in Texas as there were several interesting people about. A Lane Hacker gunship was destroyed by Fred.Hertz while I was on my way back to Houston. Also, and LPI named Alejandro had a Bretonian Templar which I thought was a little strange. When enquired, he told me he will get a Liberty ship and that he is working on it.
Another incident was the transport by the name of Budhound. He had VIPs on board and blantenly confessed that they were going to Malta. Agent Fred Hertz and [Navy]Casero told him to drop the cargo however Budhound somehow docked with Houston and smuggled the VIPs off.
