Man-made submarine pulled from harbour August 05, 2007 12:30am Article from: Reuters NEW York police have discovered a submersible floating in the East River near a docked cruise ship and detained three men in what they said was not a terrorist-related incident. The partially submerged spherical sub and a small inflatable boat were spotted approaching a security zone around the Queen Mary 2, which is docked at the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal between the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Terrorism was not suspected, according to a police spokeswoman who did not give her name. A police statement said there were two men on the inflatable boat and a third inside “a partially submerged vessel that appeared to be designed for underwater navigation.” “All three males are expected to be charged with a number of violations and both vessels will be secured by the Harbor Unit,” it said. The submersible had a small round hatch on top and appeared to be a replica of the Turtle, an early submarine used in the US Revolutionary War. |
