Oil tanker fire in Hong Kong waters kills 1, rescue going on

HONG KONG - An oil tanker caught fire in Hong Kong's southern waters on Tuesday, killing one crew member while at least 21 were rescued, police said, with witnesses reporting a loud blast that shook windows several kilometers away.

Rescue operations were going on about one nautical mile south of Lamma Island.

"There are still some crew that haven't been saved," a police spokeswoman told Reuters. She was not immediately able to provide more details including the name of the tanker, or its size.
