ST. CLAIR SHORES, Mich. — A boat explosion at Emerald City Harbor left two people with minor injuries Saturday afternoon, authorities said.

The Macomb County Sheriff’s Office Marine Division responded around 12:35 p.m. Sept. 6 after the vessel exploded shortly after fueling at the gas dock. Video footage showed the boat pulling away when it suddenly ignited.

Witnesses pulled the occupants from the water, and the St. Clair Shores Police and Fire Departments assisted at the scene. The two individuals were treated for minor injuries.

Deputies found the vessel nearly submerged with large debris scattered in the water. Fuel and oil contamination prompted a response from environmental services. The fuel dock also sustained damage.

Foul play is not suspected, though the investigation remains ongoing.
