Description
Multiple agencies are continuing to battle a fire aboard a fishing ship moored in Tacoma going on three days after it first ignited.
The fire was first reported at around 3 a.m. Saturday morning when a security guard noticed smoke coming from the ship. Three engineers on board were evacuated safely.
The fire is spreading below deck, according to the United States Coast Guard (USCG).
Four firefighters were initially injured attacking the fire the day it started, but crews have pulled back and are continuing to battle the fire from the outside of the ship.
