Evening everyone,

After sitting outside Leeds for a fair few, I encountered a King of Fighters Liner named AppZing. King of Fighters is a Universal trading company I believe... Even though they are apparently Kings of Fighters... Who the bloody ‘ell thought of that... Anyway, on topic, I stopped the Liner outside Leeds, took a cargo scan and found some Super Alloys. After asking where it was going, I indeed found out it was going for Stokes, breaking the Trade Embargo in place, so I told it to turn around or drop off the Cargo at Leeds. He agreed to turn around and he headed towards the Newcastle system.

Thinking of foul play, I decided to escort him to his destination within Bretonia. We travelled in Newcastle right up to Scarborough station, after reaching there he engaged cruise and headed straight for the Cloud near Scarborough. After a small grace period I requested that he would stop, several times, however this failed and he perused to go on and laugh as he got away, naturally it would be suicide to follow him into the cloud so I let it go.

After making a mental note of the events, I returned to Leeds Orbit, where much to my delight, there he was again, the idiot fell right back into my hands. At this point I wasn’t going to take any chances and I requested BAF backup at once. After catching him I decided it was best he dropped the cargo for confiscation right there and call a CCD unit to take it into Leeds, However he then he then proceeded to play a game of dropping a single unit of cargo then engaging cruise. Not tricked by this low attempt to escape, I gave him yet more warnings and requests to drop the entire cargo, however refused each request. I asked the BAF if they would kindly batter his ship to bits until he surrendered the cargo and came to a complete stop.

Eventually he surrendered before his ship was close to death, then he started to drop the cargo one by one again, after being told to drop it all in one go he attempted to flee again, at which point a BAF Challenger swiftly pulverised it into space dust. Afterwards all the cargo was destroyed in the subsequent explosion and nothing was left worth salvaging.

I personally suggest that the entire King of Fighters group be given a warning or worse, and the target ship AppZing be banned from Bretonian space until it pays a fine for its actions with a formal apology for making me have to repaint my Hussar yet again.

Gun cam photographs will be privately transmitted over a more secure line on request.
