3:14Now PlayingA 59-year-old city worker was reported dead and two others were injured Saturday when a boat carrying raw sewage exploded on the Hudson River near West 138th Street.
NYPD received a 911 call about a person in the water at about 10:30 a.m., and responded to the scene along with the FDNY, according to police.
Officials arrived at the scene to find a large explosion had ripped through the ship’s hull.
The blast forced a New York City Department of Environmental Protection worker into the water, where he became trapped between the vessel and the pier and died.
Two other DEP employees who were working on the vessel were rushed to nearby hospitals for treatment. One of the injured refused treatment.
