  "summary": "Two Russian crew members suffered cardiac arrest and two others were injured after a Freon gas leak aboard a Russian fishing boat docked in Busan, South Korea, according to local authorities. The incident occurred at 8:37 a.m. on a 769-ton vessel carrying a total of 15 crew members. Police and firefighting authorities responded to the scene, deploying a total of 40 personnel to inspect the boat and surrounding areas for any additional damage or casualties. Freon gas, commonly used as a refrigerant, is relatively non-toxic but can cause asphyxiation when inhaled in enclosed spaces. Authorities are currently investigating the exact cause of the accident.",
