Yacht carrying fireworks and ammunition sinks after catching fire in Marina del Rey

A large yacht carrying both fireworks and ammunition sank in Marina del Rey on Wednesday evening after it was engulfed in massive flames. Mike Rogers and Desmond Shaw have the latest.

1000 rounds is just two boxes, depending on the caliber, enough for maybe two or four practice sessions at the range to achieve or maintain skill level. And, without a barrel to focus the energy, the exploding shells are not as dangerous as you’d think.

Merica!!!!

makes perfect sense. Fireworks are dangerous. Who knows what damage could've taken place if it didn't sink?

[@jameshotz1350]

The water caused the yacht to sink.

Why all the munitions & fireworks? Was a terror plot foiled?

Wonder who owns it?

How do fireworks/ammo abruptly light on fire though?

Daylight will reveal the truth.
