MANHATTAN — A party boat made an emergency landing at Randall's Island on Monday evening after asking for medical attention for three intoxicated teens on board, fire officials said.

Fire department officials said they got the emergency call from the party boat shortly before 7 p.m.

They said the teens were taken to Harlem Hospital as a precaution for monitoring but that their conditions were not life-threatening.

The individuals were not identified, nor was the company responsible for the party boat. Fire officials could not confirm whether the intoxication was related to alcohol or other substances.
