Man Killed in Boat Explosion in Ensenada

A man has died after a possible propane explosion and fire aboard a sailboat at Marina Coral in Ensenada yesterday afternoon, according to reports from witnesses in the marina. The man’s identity is not known.

Marina tenants report hearing a loud boom followed by a fire, which strongly suggests a propane explosion. The man was eventually pulled from the boat, and was suffering from severe burns. The man’s wife was reportedly away visiting friends.

The man’s pug, which was also in the boat, was badly injured, but was alive when seen last.
