Gold Shipment Attacked

Stormwind Gold Shipment Attacked by the Defias Brotherhood

10/6/08

A wagon carrying 20 crates of gold ingots was ambushed by a group of Defias brigands. The wagon had an escort of Stormwind Guards, and after a heated skirmish, the attack was repelled. The brigands escaped into the countryside which remains mostly under the control of the Defias.

The gold shipment is part of an effort by Stormwind to provide assistance to the Westfall Militia and Sentinel Hill, which remains under a virtual siege by the Defias.

The attack was unusual in that there were undead and blood elves among the bandits that attacked. The brigands, though outnumbered, pressed the attack, but retreated when it became clear they would not be able to break the escort.
