Boat catches fire at Imperial dock

Imperial says there was a fire just before noon Tuesday on board a third-party ship docked at the company's Sarnia site.

The company said the fire was contained to the boat, the ship’s crew was able to quickly put it out, and all on board were accounted for.

The Imperial Sarnia fire department attended, but the fire had been extinguished by the time they arrived.

The Sarnia Fire Rescue Service was also called to assist.
