Trippers wait as ferry hits wall
Passengers trying to travel to Jersey were left in St Malo, France, after their ferry hit a wall.

The Condor Vitesse hit the wall shortly after leaving the harbour on Saturday morning.

After circling St Malo for about two hours, the ferry returned to the harbour. The boat was punctured above the water level, so no water came in.

Another Condor ferry has now been sent to St Malo to ferry the passengers back to the Channel Islands.
