Ferry crashes into building in San Francisco harbour
Priya Clemens says the cause of the accident is under investigation and employees onboard are being questioned.
Authorities say a boat carrying 53 passengers crashed into a dock at San Francisco’s famed Ferry Building, causing injuries to two people onboard.
A spokeswoman for Golden Gate Ferry told the Marin Independent Journal the ferry coming from Larkspur sustained damage following Friday afternoon’s crash.
A witness told The Associated Press the ferry had bumped into one dock before careering towards another dock.
Tiffany Dennis said the accident set off panic among a crowd of people dining and shopping at the waterfront attraction.
The vessel came to a stop when it struck a concrete walkway.
The newspaper says a passenger and a worker onboard sustained minor injuries.
