Sub captain blamed for undersea accident

The United States Navy has relieved from command the captain of a nuclear-powered submarine that rammed into an undersea mountain in the Pacific last month, killing one crew member and injuring 98 others.

Commander Kevin Mooney was removed for failing to follow crucial navigational procedures before the USS San Francisco crashed into the mountain.

The Navy said investigators found "several critical navigational and voyage planning procedures were not being implemented" aboard the submarine.
