VENICE: At least five people have been injured when a cruise ship has struck a tourist river boat on a busy canal in Venice.

The collision happened about 8:30 a.m. Sunday on the Giudecca Canal in the northeastern Italian city. Video of the crash shows the cruise ship, apparently unable to halt its momentum, plowing into the much smaller river boat and the dock as dozens of people run away in panic.

Venice is a tremendously popular site for both tourists and cruise ships, especially during the summer tourist season.
