English term or phrase: shoot towards
descripción de un ataque pirata en Somalia:

"The pirates shoot towards the bridge of the vessel , and command them to stop."

La traducción del idioma original al inglés no es muy correcta. ¿Ustedes qué opinan? ¿Que los piratas se mueven hacia el puente de mando, o disparan hacia el puente de mando?

Explanation:
Creo que en este caso no se trata de disparar, sino de ir lanzados hacia el puente. Saludos.
