A patrol boat used by the Elgin, Ont. OPP was stolen Wednesday morning from a marina in Port Stanley and set on fire.

Elgin OPP Const. Troy Carlson told CTV that the boat was taken around 2:45 a.m.

With the 24 ft. Sea Swirl Inboard/Outboard boat rendered unusable by the damage, the marine unit at Port Stanley is out of operation, OPP said. The nearest emergency response by water is now Long Point, approximately 75 kilometres away.

Police are continuing their investigation and have no suspects at this time.
