Tug on fire in Houston
The Coast Guard Captain of the Port Houston closed the Houston Ship Channel with a safety zone near Interstate 610 from 12:15 a.m. to 2 a.m. on Feb 26, 2016, as their crews and local fire departments responded to the "San Gabriel" being engulfed in flames, moored at the LyondellBasell refinery, about two miles east of Interstate 610. The fire was reported at midnight. The Sector Houston-Galveston watchstanders launched a Station Houston 29-foot response boat crew to the scene to meet shoreside fire crews and the Port of Houston fire boat. The safety zone was in place until it was clear for traffic to navigate through the area, from 12:15 a.m. until 2 a.m., between Simms Bayou and Light 162. The tug as moored next to an empty sulfur barge when it caught fire and the crewmembers were able to evacuate safely. Report with photo: http://www.uscgnews.com/go/doc/4007/2791386/
