Fire destroys two boats at Alameda Marina

A fire broke out early Wednesday morning at the Marina Village Yacht Harbor in Alameda, burning two boats. Fire crews, including a fire boat, responded quickly and controlled the blaze before it could spread to other vessels. One person escaped safely from the burning boats, and no injuries were reported. The fire was extinguished by early morning, but one boat sank while the other was severely damaged. Investigations are underway to determine the cause of the fire, and measures have been taken to prevent oil spills in the harbor. The responsibility for removing the burned vessels will fall to the owners and their insurance companies.
