Damaged Tanker Off France

A chemical tanker with 6,000 tonnes of solvent aboard ran into trouble after an apparent collision off the French coast yesterday but its crew was rescued and its cargo did not seem to be leaking, French port authorities said.

Rescuers took 13 crew members of the YM Uranus, a vessel sailing under a Maltese flag, to safety by helicopter, a port authority spokesman said, after it appeared to hit another ship south of the island of Ouessant off France's northwest coast.
