Police say a man is facing vehicular manslaughter charges in a boat crash near the Statue of Liberty that killed another man and injured two others.

Authorities say 39-year-old Richard Aquilone of Jersey City, N.J., was out on the water Friday evening with his wife, 2-year-old daughter and two sons, ages 2 and 3, when their 30-foot boat hit a smaller craft.

A 30-year-old man on the smaller boat was killed. The two other 30-year-olds on that boat were hospitalized in stable condition. Police have not identified them.

No one on the boat with Aquilone was injured.

A telephone number for Aquilone could not be found.
