The 114 meter long, 3248 dwt coastal freighter Volgo-balt 244 went aground off Løgstør, Denmark.  The Volgo-balt 244 was proceeding in ballast  from Gdynia to Thisted to load a cargo of ore.  Reports state the mate on the vessel had lost control of the vessel due to the difficult currents and strong wind.   The vessel rests on a sand bank and authorities are not worried of possible pollution being released.   No salvage date has been set.   No reports of injuries.
