New-York City: Two dead after crane collapses
A large crane collapsed in New York City on Friday, killing two people and damaging an apartment building on Manhattan's Upper East Side -- a day after city officials investigated the crane's operations. The crane operator and another construction worker died in the collapse shortly after 8 a.m. EDT, a third worker was seriously injured and a pedestrian received minor injuries, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and police said.
Bloomberg said the top section of the crane broke off and smashed into an apartment building called The Electra, which is more than 20 floors high, on 91st Street and First Avenue.
?We don't know why it snapped off and we will certainly do an investigation,? he said. The crane was being used to build a 32-story apartment building across the street.
