Ship Crashes Near Earth Islet, Rumors Ship Was Shot Down

EARTH ISLET - Phoenix Acolyte Deebrane String was admitted to Keajra Hospital in Spinwheel City today where she remains in stable condition, in the coma induced by regeneration treatment. Registered Companion Zai Xian remains at her Taksimi's side.

Early this morning, Chief of Staff Fa-Le Yan heard Deebs's mayday calls as her ship entered the Paquin system, already disabled and out of control. Deebs's great skill as a pilot allowed her to ditch her crippled craft safely in the Keajra Sea near Earth Islet..

Spinwheel Search and Rescue were quickly able to locate the Phoenix Acolyte, who had ejected just before impact, and transport her to the hospital. Yan has sealed the crash site, forbidding entry to everyone, including the commanding officer of Alliance cruiser Zheng He, who has promised repercussions from Yan's adamant refusal.

When asked about the report from a source wishing to remain anonymous that Deebs was being fired upon by a hostile craft as the Martian neared Paquin, Yan refused comment, and when pressed about the nature of the damage to Deebs's craft, Yan replied sharply that she can neither confirm nor deny the existence of any craft, damaged or otherwise.

The uncooperative Guild Chief of Staff also refused to acknowledge any link between the suspicious crash and the overdue return of the High Priestess. When the total failure of communications links to the Orion home world of Rigel VII was mentioned, Yan stated that the Orions are allies of the Companion's Guild and the High Priestess has accepted the Orion Ambassador as an honored guest. She claimed that there is no connection between the simultaneous communications blackout, disappearance of the High Priestess, and the damage to Deebs's craft.

The Cortex News Service will continue to investigate these mysteries, and will bring you up-to-the-nanosecond coverage of the Guild administration's coverup of these important events as they develop.

Disease ID'd - Spinwheel Goes Into Quarantine

SPINWHEEL CITY - The disease that started with a few people coming down with fever has exploded in the city. Hundreds are now infected with the illness and the city has shut down its port and gone into quarantine.

Local medical authorities have established that the virus is the same one that has killed on Arraxes. The planetary government has asked for assistance from the Arraxen government in knowledge and and medicines to fight the illness.

Until further notice, no traffic, either from offworld or other parts of Paquin will be allowed in or out of Spinwheel. The government is also informing worlds who receive ships that are based in Spinwheel or pass through the port on their routes.

Mayor Tillery Woodhen is asking all Spinwheel residents to stay home until the crisis passes. The virus is passed easily both by air and touch. Security has been increase at hospitals to prevent panic by those afraid of being infected.

Downtown Redevelopment Continues.


The redeveloped downtown Spinwheel City skyline.

Paquin Mercury

SPINWHEEL CITY - The redevelopment of Spinwheel is moving ahead with the construction of a new mall, new buildings for CNS Corp. and UAP sector offices and a remodeled hospital and government house.

The Spinwheel City Shopping Mall, at the south end of High Street, opened two weeks ago to a gala celebration. Along with streetlevel stores facing Theatre Street, there are two more levels of stores with a dance club on the top floor, offering views down Court Street to the port.
Directly across from the mall is the remodeled Kejara Hospital. And an expanded government house has been built covering the entire block just east of the central square. The courthouse, UAP Tower and CNS HQ have all been remodeled to allow for a more open feeling on High Street. The street itself has been widened to allow for better traffic flow through the commercial district. The tram will continue to keep its route through the area.

Paquin Bank Victim of Robbery

SPINWHEEL - Stunner fire rattled through Paquin this morning as the Paquin Planetary Bank was robbed by what was described as four heavily armed women.  Witnesses say they stormed in discharging weapons and demanded "everyone get on the f...ing floor this is a robbery"

One customer was not fast enough and was  shot in the leg. The group demanded the vault be opened and took 500,000 Alliance credits before exiting the bank and boarding an awaiting shuttle in a nearby park. Authorities have no accurate descriptions other than lots of tattoos, two members have red hair, another black.

Reputation states that the girls have been robbing banks in other systems and they are an efficient crew in making no errors and are challenging.
