Description: A week after an armed detachment of law enforcement agents from The Gambia Navy stationed on board the Sea Shepherd Global vessel Age of Union arrested three trawlers for fishing illegally in waters reserved for artisanal fishermen, a fourth trawler was arrested after a scuffle ensued between small-scale fishers and the crew on board an industrialized fishing vessel that ran over a net that had been deployed by canoe. Pushing and shoving ensured when the small-scale fishers boarded the trawler demanding compensation and calling for the Ministry of Defence to have the trawler arrested.
