BBC headline with odd quote marks:
Pirates raid 'Italian' ship off Nigeria and take crew
Pirates have kidnapped four sailors after attacking their vessel off Nigeria's coast, the International Maritime Bureau (IMB) has said.
The hostages were foreigners - three of them Italian, AP news agency reports.
Gunmen stormed the vessel off Nigeria's oil-producing Niger Delta region, before seizing the four and fleeing, the IMB said.
Kidnapping is a lucrative enterprise worth millions of dollars a year in Nigeria, Africa's main oil producer.
