Multiple people injured Saturday after a duck boat sightseeing vehicle with several tourists on board flipped Saturday in Cambridge, Massachusetts, state police say.
A duck boat overturned Saturday at a popular tourist attraction in Boston, Massachusetts, injuring at least six people and prompting a major emergency rescue response.
The boat tipped on its side at a Cambridge boat ramp near the entrance to the Charles River, state police told Fox News Digital. None of the passengers wound up in the water, police said.
The Cambridge Police Department (CPD) said some of the injuries were classified as minor, with two considered “more serious.”
