A commuter ferry has crashed into the dockside in Lower Manhattan in New York, injuring between 30 and 50 people.<\/h1>\n

The Sea Streak Ferry, which provides daily services from Atlantic Highlands in New Jersey, struck Pier 11 at about 8.45am ET (1.45pm GMT).<\/p>\n

Officials say at least one of the passengers has critical injuries.<\/p>\n

The vessel struck a loading barge that it was passing while trying to dock, according to Sea Streak President James Barker.<\/p>\n

“There was a jolt when that occurred, throwing the people forward into their seats and the walls,” Mr Barker told NBC 4 New York.<\/p>\n

Many other passengers were taken off the ferry on back boards for medical evaluation, their heads and necks immobilised.<\/p>\n

About a dozen people on stretchers were spread out on the dock, surrounded by emergency workers and firefighters.<\/p>\n

A corner of the ferry appeared to have been ripped open by the impact.<\/p>\n
