BOSTON (AP) — A woman has died after she was struck by an amphibious sightseeing vehicle in downtown Boston. The crash happened around 11:30 a.m. Saturday right near public park Boston Common. A city police department spokeswoman said the person hit was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital with life-threatening injuries. Boston Police Commissioner Bill Evans told WCVB-TV the woman had died. It wasn't immediately clear whether passengers were on the vessel, known as a duck boat, when the crash happened. A Boston Duck Tours spokesman didn't immediately return a message seeking comment. There's no word on the cause of the crash. No further details were immediately available.
