A woman and child have died after a boat capsized off the coast of New York’s Liberty Island, famously home to the Statue of Liberty, police say.The victims were among 14 people who had to be pulled from the water in New York Harbor after the vessel, which sources told New York Post was a 22-foot bowrider motorboat, flipped over at about 10:25pm on Saturday (12.25pm on Sunday AEST).The dead child was just five months old, sources said.“No. Why? Why? No,” a loved one of the victims could be heard yelling in horror at NYU Langone Hospital Brooklyn, where many of the victims had been taken.Some could be seen in the hospital lobby still holding their life jackets.It wasn’t clear what caused the capsizing.Video of the incident shows blue and red emergency craft lights in the harbor’s darkness searching the waters after the incident.New York City Fire Department helicopters responded to the scene and could be seen hovering overhead.The New York City Police Department said that 12 of the 14 victims were pulled to safety by the time they arrived, and that NYPD divers found the woman and child and transported them to the hospital, where they later died.
