The US Coast Guard has opened fire to sink the Japanese "ghost ship" cast adrift by last year's massive tsunami, which was approaching the shores of Alaska. The deserted ship, which was more than 60 meters long, posed a significant risk to marine traffic as it drifted through shipping lanes and at some point might have interfered with other ships.
