The incident happened when the ship, named Multi Trader, began to sink and its Captain called Mangalia port authorities for assistance, said Adrian Burcea, chief officer of the local border police. Authorities have sent out an anti-pollution team to the sunken ship to check whether there were any leaks of fuel or lubricants, he said.
