The US navy says it has captured a number of suspected pirates in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia.
The guided missile destroyer USS Winston S Churchill went in pursuit of a suspect vessel after receiving a report of piracy, the navy said. When other efforts failed, the Churchill fired warning shots to bring the boat to a halt. There have been numerous attacks by pirates off Somalia, some of the most dangerous waters in the world.
