Several injuries registered with 45 people with the boat after the ferry

Clearwater, Florida – the city of Clearwater said one person had died and after a boat accident near the Memorial Causeway Bridge, several injuries were reported.

ABC Action News spoke to the Clearwater Mayor Bruce Rector, who said that the Clearwater ferry was in a collision with a privately owned boat. The ferry can wear 50 people.

“We believe that the boat, which is responsible for meeting the ferry, immediately left the scene, and we believe that our law enforcement companies are currently in another place with this boat, but we still ask anyone who has seen something who has seen someone who has a video to connect us,” said Rob Shaw with the city of Clearwater.
