The U.S. Navy says one of its destroyers collided with an oil tanker early Sunday near Strait of Hormuz but that no one was injured in the accident. The collision involving the USS Porter and the Panamanian-flagged bulk oil tanker M/V Otowasan occurred at approximately 1 a.m. local time, the U.S. Navy said in a statement. The damage to the Porter is being evaluated and the incident is under investigation, the Navy was quoted as saying by the Associated Press.
