HONG KONG—Several dozens of people were injured Friday when a Macau-bound high-speed ferry hit a breakwater before it entered the gambling city's ferry terminal.
The high-speed ferry, operated by Shun Tak-China Travel Ship Management Ltd., was making a scheduled trip—one of dozens made by ferry operators each day—to the gambling mecca of Macau from Hong Kong. The accident took place at around 9:35 a.m. local time, around an hour after the ferry, carrying 220 passengers and 13 crew members, departed from Hong Kong, the company said.
Most of the 57 people sent to a local hospital after the accident were suffering from minor injuries, according to the ferry operator. Among the 233 aboard were eight Thais, four Koreans and one Japanese, and as of 3 p.m. local time, 50 of those at the hospital have already been discharged, it added.
