San Francisco, Nov 24 (AP) Authorities say a ferry boat carrying 53 passengers crashed into a dock at San Francisco's famed Ferry Building, injuring two people on board.

A spokeswoman for Golden Gate Ferry told the Marin Independent Journal that the ferry coming from Larkspur was damaged in Friday's crash. Priya Clemens says the cause of the accident is under investigation, and employees aboard are being questioned.
