HOUSTON (AP) -- Officials say two vessels have collided but nobody has been hurt and nothing spilled in a Houston Ship Channel accident during foggy conditions.

Coast Guard Petty Officer Price Danner says the accident happened around 8 a.m. Tuesday near the Texas City dike.

The cause of the collision is under investigation. The two vessels managed to drop anchor along the edge of the ship channel.

A Coast Guard official did not immediately return a message Tuesday from The Associated Press to provide more details.
