Dull, shaky, blurry hazy in contrast and imagery Lightning sets fire to tanker and turns it into a blazing inferno. Firemen battling the flames for more than 24 hours to keep it from spreading to other parts of the harbor. Three members of the 54 man crew were injured, two seriously as the ship virtually exploded.
