Exploding boat at Gibraltar fuel station leaves four in hospital with burns FOUR twentysomethings have suffered burns after their boat exploded in Gibraltar when they were filling it up with fuel. Emergency services say three of the crew, who are all Spanish, have been seriously injured. They set out on Sunday morning from Málaga in westerly direction, but once they reached Algeciras (Cádiz province) their craft ran out of diesel. A rescue boat towed them to the Gib Oil station on the Rock. They have all been taken to the San Bernardo hospital in the British colony, according to Gibraltar-based TV station GBC. The causes of the accident are being investigated, but initial theories point to the craft having exploded whilst being filled up with fuel. Source: Think Spain
