A commuter ferry carrying 300 people crashed while pulling into the docks at Lower Manhattan this morning, injuring at least 17 people.
The Seastreak Ferry made a 'hard docking' at Pier 11 just before 9am throwing dozens of people on board forward or to the floor.
Police and firefighters were on the scene and a number of people were taken away in stretchers to nearby hospitals with more being treated at the scene

I read many on board were commuters from NJ going to work, like they need any more tragedy in their lives.
