A front loader tore violently into abandoned boats while dump trucks cycled through the parking lot of the Jack London Aquatic Center on Thursday, as police began a long-awaited cleanup of the Oakland Estuary.

According to Oakland Police Marine Patrol Officer Kaleo Albino, who was overseeing the operation at Jack London Square, his team hauled at least 12 abandoned or derelict vessels from the thin waterway separating Oakland and Alameda on Thursday morning. The demolished boats were then transported to a landfill.
