Two crew members on an Italian-flagged ship were injured when the vessel was attacked by pirates in the Gulf of Mexico, the Mexican navy said Tuesday.
One crew member aboard the "Remas" had a bullet wound and the other suffered a concussion, officials told Reuters. Both men were taken to a hospital. Their conditions were not immediately available.
The "Remas" is a supply vessel for Mexico's oil industry and is owned by Micoperi, an Italian contractor.
