SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) — One person is dead, and two are seriously injured after a fishing boat crashed into rocks near the Golden Gate Bridge on Thursday morning, according to the San Francisco Police Department.

Authorities responded around 6:10 a.m. after the 25-foot vessel hit rocks on the north side of the bridge in Marin County and began to capsize.

Fire crews from San Francisco, Marin and Sausalito, along with the Coast Guard, responded to the crash. The three people on board were taken to a Marin County hospital, where one of them died.

The other two have life-threatening injuries, SFPD says.

It is still unclear what caused the crash.
