Officers from the Coast Guard and Providence Fire Department this morning were out checking a construction barge that appears to be listing in the Providence River between the Point Street Bridge and the hurricane barrier. Coast Guard Petty Officer Andrew Christopherson, from Sector Southeast New England, said the barge seems stable and appears to be hung up on a submerged piling with an outgoing tide. A Cranston Fire Rescue boat was also on the scene.
