Boat Hits Rocks in Arthur Kill
WOODBRIDGE — Five people were injured, but none critically, in a boating accident in the Arthur Kill Channel on Sunday afternoon, according to New Jersey State Police.
New Jersey State Police were called to 1 Ferry St. in Woodbridge at 5:41 p.m. for an accident in the Arthur Kill, according to Trooper Alejandro Goez.
Goez said a 27-feet Baha vessel was traveling south in the Arthur Kill when it struck rocks, resulting in injuries to five of the eight people aboard. Goez said the five people, ranging in age from 16 to 40, were transported to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick. Three people were not injured.
Goez said a 35-year-old woman, initially thought to have life-threatening injuries, was airlifted to the hospital. It was later learned that none of the injured people had life-threatening injuries, Goez said.
Beside the 35-year-old woman, also injured were four men, ages 16, 35, 39 and 40. Goez did not have the hometowns of the injured and also did not have information about where the boat trip started.
The cause of the crash is under investigation,
