Flare Gun Play Causes Fire to Classic Hatteras in Bradenton Florida

A classic thirteen meters Hatteras sportfish cruiser had its flybridge go ablaze at Twin Dolphin Marina, near Riverwalk, Bradenton, Florida on 13:30 of Monday fourteen July.  Bradenton Fire Department and City of Bradenton Fire tended to the fire which was reported on 911 by witnesses, and managed to extinguish it, with the damage circumstanced solely to the flybridge area.  Following this an eye witness who saw the accident reported that he saw three teens fire something off the bridge, and set the flybridge of the Hatteras boat.  With this report and CCTV in hand from the area, the Bradenton Police Department incriminated the three teens  kids aged between eleven and fourteen years old, who were charged with first degree arson, firearm possession, and discharging of a firearm in public and private property.  The three kids were then transported to the Manatee Juvenile Detention Center.
The Hatteras in this accident is a 46 Convertible Series I as designed by Jack Hargrave and produced from 1974 to 1981.  The 46 Convertible Series I was a replacement to the 45 Convertible Series I, and was replaced by Hatteras 46 Convertible Series II.
