BOSTON (AP) - A spokesman for Boston Duck Tours says the tour group is cooperating with police after one of its amphibious sightseeing vehicles struck and killed a 29-year-old woman on a scooter in downtown Boston.

Spokesman Bob Schwartz said in an email Saturday the company was trying to obtain video footage to see what exactly had occurred.

The crash happened around 11:30 a.m. near public park Boston Common.

A city police department spokeswoman said the woman and her male passenger were taken to Massachusetts General Hospital, where the woman died from her injuries. The passenger suffered non-life threatening injuries.

The police spokeswoman says there were about 30 passengers on the vessel, known as a duck boat, when the crash happened. There were no other injuries.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.
