The vessel had been moved to an anchorage approximately one mile from shore, near Angel\u2019s Gate Lighthouse with fireboats continuing to respond.<\/p>\n<p>The response to the <em>ONE Henry Hudson<\/em> fire began at 6:38 p.m on November 21, 2025, when agencies including the Los Angeles City Fire Department, the Long Beach Fire Department, the Los Angeles County Fire Department, the California Governor\u2019s Office of Emergency Services, the United States Coast Guard, and the Los Angeles Port Police responded after receiving reports of smoke and fire below deck on the docked containership.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Crews battle container ship fire at Port of LA\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2ADA-D4j5j0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>At approximately 8 p.m., Friday, multiple agencies arrived on scene as a Unified Command was stood up between the Los Angeles Fire Department, the United States Coast Guard, the Port of Los Angeles Police Department, and the vessel representative.<\/p>\n<p>As the agency primarily responsible for fire suppression, LAFD deployed nearly 200 personnel \u2014 numerous fire companies and several specialized resources including Heavy Rescue, HazMat, USAR, fire boats, and air operations coordinated efforts from the land, sea, and sky. Long Beach Fire Department deployed two Battalion Chiefs, a foam apparatus, and Fire Boats 15 and 20 that assisted fire suppression efforts alongside five of LAFD\u2019s fire boats. Thermal imaging provided by a fixed-wing aircraft helped monitor fire conditions and heat signatures from above.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeveral of the ship\u2019s 23 total crew members initially assisted firefighters in gaining access to the lower decks of the ship, but all 23 members were ultimately safely assisted off the vessel with the help of Los Angeles Port Police and United States Customs and Border Protection,\u201d says LAFD. \u201cRemarkably \u2014 and thankfully \u2014 no injuries have been reported as a result of this fire.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-explosion\">EXPLOSION<\/h4>\n<p>Fire suppression and vessel management during the incident presented extraordinary challenges. Fire burned on multiple sub-levels below deck, in areas that were largely inaccessible. At approximately 8:00 p.m, Friday, a mid-ship explosion caused onboard lights and cranes to lose power. While the ship maintained a stable height in the water with no indication of listing, hazardous materials were identified in several affected bays, prompting LAFD HazMat teams to conduct continuous air monitoring.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-shelter-in-place\">SHELTER IN PLACE<\/h4>\n<p>While air quality readings in the smoke plume remained within normal ranges, Unified Command issued a precautionary shelter-in-place order for San Pedro and Wilmington residents out of an abundance of caution. As conditions on the vessel deteriorated, Unified Command ordered all firefighting personnel to withdraw from the ship. The firefight continued from a safe distance using master streams (large-diameter hand lines, aerial ladder pipes, and heavy-flow battery devices mounted on fire engines and fire boats).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.marinelog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAFDhoriz.jpg?resize=700%2C525&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"ONE Henry Hudson fire\" class=\"wp-image-104811\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAFDhoriz.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAFDhoriz-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAFDhoriz-209x157.jpg 209w, https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAFDhoriz-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAFDhoriz-640x480.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Photo: LAFD<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At approximately 3:00 a.m. on November 22, agencies in Unified Command coordinated a large-scale effort to undock the ship and escort it from the Port of Los Angeles and out to sea beyond the Vincent Thomas Bridge \u2013 all while continuing fire suppression and safety-, structural-, and air-monitoring operations.<\/p>\n<p>At 4:43 a.m., <em>ONE Henry Hudson <\/em>was successfully anchored in Grid:G4 of the Wilmington-Harbor City Community Plan \u2013 approximately one mile from shore, near Angel\u2019s Gate Lighthouse.
