A South Korean coast guard was stabbed to death by Chinese fisherman in an attempt to gain control over a Chinese ship operating illegally near South Korean waters. Another South Korean was injured in the process. Chinese fishing are often caught fishing in South Korean waters. "One officer is dead. There is another one injured. There are no other injuries," a coastguard officer said. "It happened in the EEZ (exclusive economic zone), outside the territorial waters, but it's still illegal fishing." Last month South Korea said they start to crackdown on illegal fishing by Chinese fishing boats in its EEZ. About 2,600 Chinese fishing boats have been caught illegally fishing in the South Korean EEZ since 2006 and nearly 800 Chinese fishermen have been arrested.
