SAN DIEGO, CA — The captain of a Navy ship damaged during a collision in the Mediterranean has been relieved of command and is facing charges, the Navy announced Tuesday.

Investigators say that the Captain was negligent in his duties -- resulting in the USS Quandry colliding with Exxon Tanker Intrepid.

"It wasn't my goddamn fault," said Captain Williams. "I'm being railroaded for this crap."

The collision occurred 37 miles off the coast of Benghazi. Twelve sailors aboard the Quandry were injured. Two crew members of the tanker were thrown overboard. Their bodies were never found.
