Navy ship accidentally fires on Polish port
By Mike Mount, CNN Senior Pentagon Producer

Washington (CNN) -- A crew member aboard a U.S. Navy ship accidentally
fired a machine gun into the Polish port city of Gdynia on Wednesday
while cleaning the weapon, Navy officials said Friday.

Three rounds were fired from an M240 machine gun into the town but no
injuries or damage were reported, officials said.

The gun, aboard the USS Ramage, a Navy destroyer, is used to defend the
ship in close combat.

Navy officials said a crew member was cleaning the weapon when it
accidentally discharged.
