Soviet Hurricane crash circa December 1942

Hi guys

A Soviet Hurricane was shot down by an American cargo vessel circa December 1942, when it overflew the ship at low level whilst at anchor in Murmansk/Arkangelsk (according to the SBNO at Murmansk)

Apparently it was the second or third Soviet aircraft to have fallen to the ships' gunfire in this period.

Any information would be most welcomed.

Thanks
Brian
