Ventura, CAThree people were injured when a fishing boat ran aground in Anacapa Island off the coast of Port Hueneme Monday.
The boat, known as Sea Biscuit, ran aground at Anacapa Island around 12:26 a.m., and was carrying about two dozen people.
Authorities say those onboard the boat sent a distress signal. That's when Oxnard firefighters jumped on a Coast Guard boat from the Channel Islands Harbor in Oxnard and responded to the scene.
It took crews two hours to tow the boat back to the mainland.
