According to WCBS880, an oil tanker carrying more than 450,000 barrels of oil ran aground on Thursday in the waters off Coney Island, but no spill was reported. Something reportedly went wrong with the steering system on the ship at about 6:30AM causing the “White Sea” to run into the sandy bottom of Ambrose Channel. Three tugboats are attempting to assist in freeing the vessel. Click HERE to see live footage by WCBSTV.
