## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE ENROUTE, HAD TO SHUTDOWN ENGINE 2.  WERE CRUISING AT 9500 AND HEARD 2 AUDIBLE GRINDING NOISES FROM THE REAR OF THE ACFT.  ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WE RECEIVED A NR 2 ENGINE CHIP LIGHT.  AT THAT TIME THE ENGINE 2 OIL PRESSURE ALSO INDICATED IN THE RED. WE ELECTED TO SHUTDOWN ENGINE 2 AND DIVERTED.
