Pirates Kill All 4 American Hostages

The four Americans on a yacht captured by Somali pirates Friday have been shot and killed by their captors, NBC News reports, and US forces killed two pirates and captured the remaining 13. Phyllis Macay, Robert Riggle and the yacht’s owners Jean and Scott Adam were captured on a round-the-world sailing trip while off the coast of Oman in the Indian Ocean. The pirates had headed toward waters between Yemen and northern Somalia. A Somali pirate said Sunday that a warship had been shadowing the yacht.
