[NBC Nightly News] TWO US SECURITY CONTRACTORS FOUND DEAD ON MAERSK ALABAMA. NBC Nightly News (2/19, story 6, 0:30, Williams, 7.86M) reported that two former US Navy SEALs working as private security contractors were found dead in a cabin on the Maersk Alabama, the ship made famous by the Somali pirate hijacking depicted in the Tom Hanks film, Captain Philips. The discovery was made while the containerized shipping vessel was moored in the Seychelles.

USA Today (2/20, Winter, 5.82M) reports that according to local police, Jeffrey Reynolds and Mark Kennedy, both 44, were found dead Tuesday afternoon in Kennedys cabin.

The AP (2/20, Straziuso) reports that police said that a post mortem has been scheduled, and the US Coast Guard said that it is also investigating the deaths.
