In another case of a Oceanic hit-and-run in recent weeks, a fishing boat which collided with a ship in the Yangtze River estuary off Shanghai has left one person dead and eight others missing. The boat contained 11 people in total when it rammed against a ship at 3:40am this morning. Three of the passengers were rescued, but a fourth died of serious injuries. The search for the missing is still ongoing. Meanwhile, the vessel that hit the fishing ship has run off and is being pursued by maritime authorities. In late April, a ship modeled after an ancient Chinese junk met an untimely end on its trip across the Pacific after a tanker smashed into it and ran off. Source: Xinhua
