State police told CBS Boston that all four were taken to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. A 24-year-old woman, whom the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office identified as Elizabeth Dankert of Andover, was later pronounced dead.

Boston EMS said the difficult conditions included "darkness and slippery shoreline rocks" as EMTs George May and Andrea Albano rushed to help the victims.

"Working in close coordination with Massport Fire, crews carefully extricated four patients from the rocks," Boston EMS said.

As of Thursday morning, police did not reveal the identities of the other two women and one man on the boat, or possible reasons for the crash.
