The 65 meter long, 1170 dwt freighter Katrine Krog went aground off Jeremie, Haiti.   The small freighter was at anchor when the anchor began to drag.   The crew was unable to start its main engine  before the vessel went aground.   The vessel suffered damage to its hull and had water ingress into the holds.   No reports of injuries.   Two weeks later, reports show the vessel waterlogged with the main deck nearly awash.   No word if any fuel was removed, but there is a strong possibility that pollution was released.
