McCain tracking the N. Korea vessel in more ways than one

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) has his eye on the North Korean vessel that may be carrying banned cargo in more ways than one.

He tweeted Saturday morning what the American vessel tailing the North Korean ship happens to be named.

The U.S. Navy ship tracking N. Korean vessel is the destroyer USS John S. McCain

Sure enough, this AFP article confirms that.

The USS John S. McCain was shadowing the vessel, the Kang Nam, the first ship to be monitored under a UN resolution imposed a week ago that bans arms shipments to and from North Korea, the official said.
