After the Seastreak Wall Street ferry smashed into a Lower Manhattan dock
Wednesday morning, first responders rushed dozens of people who were hurt
to a scattering of hospitals where nearly all were treated for minor
injuries.

But one passenger suffered serious head and face trauma and had to be
taken 6 miles north for treatment - past the partially operational
Bellevue Hospital Center and to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital on the Upper
East Side.
