At least four boats at the Grove Isle marina in Coconut Grove were damaged after a fire broke out Tuesday morning.
Firefighters were called out to the area around 7:30 a.m. after two boats docked at the marina burst into flames, according to reporting from the Miami Herald. The fire was contained within 10 minutes and no injuries were reported.
Two other boats had exterior heat damage, but their interior were not damaged, according to reporting.
The operator of a boat involved in a 2022 boat crash in Boca Chita Key that killed one teen and permanently injured another has been ordered to surrender to police after news broke last month he would be facing vessel homicide charges, according to local news outlets.
The order was signed by a judge Wednesday and calls for 54-year-old George Pino, a Miami real estate developer, to surrender to authorities. In addition to the vessel homicide charge, Pino will allegedly face one count of driving a vessel in a reckless manner.
