Whale Watching Ship Runs Into San Diego Dock

Several people were injured when a Hornblower bay-cruiser slammed into a dock along the San Diego Embarcadero Thursday afternoon. The Adventure Hornblower hit a concrete wall while docking near North Harbor Drive around 1 p.m., the San Diego Harbor Police told KSWB. Three of the 140 passengers aboard the ship complained of back pain and were taken to a hospital. Four other people were evaluated by medical staff, but didn’t need further care. A mechanical malfunction was to blame for the crash, officials said.
