Drug tests of crew negative
Drug tests administered to the crew of the "York" that crashed into a Jersey City pier on Nov 29 have come back negative. The tests showed neither the captain nor other crew members who were on the ferry at the time of the crash had drugs in their systems. The cause of the ferry crash was still under investigation. The ferry could be back in operation as early as Dec 9, depending on how its repairs go ahead and the inspection that would follow the repairs.
Seven injured when ferry slammed into pier
The "York" hit the Owen Grundy Pier on the Hudson River in Jersey City on Nov 29, 2013, at 4.30 p.m.. The ferry was coming from the World Financial Center and was carrying 24 passengers, when it pulled into the wrong slip and slammed into a metal apparatus. Four of the injured were knocked to the ground upon impact, and five suffered injuries. Four were treated at an area hospital. None of the injuries were serious, and the damage to the ferry bow was minor. The captain and two deckhands were also given drug tests shortly after the accident as a standard procedure.
