Engine-room fire in a ship docked in Charlestown quickly doused

Boston firefighters responded to the Boston Autoport off Terminal Street in Charlestown after some electrical equipment caught on fire around 8:30 p.m. in the engine room of the Symphony, which had arrived in Boston from Dublin earlier in the day.

The ship's crew was able to put out the fire in some switch gear with extinguishers, two levels below deck.

The Boston Fire Department reports no injuries.

The 427-foot-long ship was docked in the Mystic, near the Tobin Bridge.
