A large fire broke out at a Virginia marina early Wednesday morning.

Firefighters battled the two-alarm blaze for hours before bringing it under control.

Witnesses reported hearing an explosion shortly before the fire began.

The fire destroyed three boats, but crews were able to move other boats and keep the fire from spreading.

Haz-mat crews were on the scene trying to contain leaked fuel from spreading.

Investigators are looking for a cause.
