A 110-foot freight barge has capsized near the Bay Bridge, San Francisco. The freight barge Vengeance contains 4,000 gallons of diesel fuel and 300 gallons of hydraulic oil. It is believed that the winds, which reached more than 40 mph during the night, caused the barge to capsize. A Coast Guard helicopter crew is scheduled to conduct an overflight and divers are scheduled to conduct an underwater assessment.
