KEY WEST, Florida (AP) -- At 1:23AM, the stormy early morning darkness was lit up with the site of a suspected Nuclear Blast less then one mile off shore.

Florida State Governor has declared a State of Emergency and FEMA workers have been dispatched to search for any damage to the island infrastructure. Police are on top alert, as bomb search teams sweep the island for any other explosive devices.

At this time, National Guardsmen have been dispatched to the island to help control panic, and a state of Martial Law is considered being declared, although opposed by local lawmakers, citing that an armed military presence would only further upset local resident and visiting tourists alike.

Currently, no group as claimed responsibility for the attack, which occurred on a Luxury Yacht offshore. As of this time, the owners of the yacht are unknown, as are casualties, if any.

If you have further information, you are urged to contact local authorities immediately.
