Three Million Dollar Drydock Gutted by Fire in New Orleans
Fire at the Jannacke Drydock and Shipbuilding plant in New Orleans caused $5.65 million in damage to a $3.75 million floating drydock. Three vessels under repair were destroyed and six others damaged. About 30 people were reported missing or drowned after leaping into the river to escape flames, with no confirmed fatalities. The blaze reportedly began when a rivet touched a hot wire and water, triggering explosions and a fast-spreading fire that damaged the Jannacke plant and threatened nearby vessels valued at $10 million. Fire crews later gained control as the flames waned.
