Have comparable violent incidents occurred in the Royal Navy?

A general answer acknowledges violent incidents over the Royal Navy's long history without identifying a particular British case.

Question

Has the Royal Navy had violent incidents comparable to the American crew-member murder raised in the question?

Short answer

Yes in general, although no particular comparable Royal Navy case is identified.

Notes

The response is a broad yes, based on the Royal Navy's several centuries of existence. Alcohol is suggested as a recurring factor in such incidents. No named British case is supplied, so this answer does not establish a specific comparison with the American incident raised in the question.
