BRIDE’S CRANE- CRASH DRAMA.
One person died and two others were seriously injured when a crane collapsed Friday morning in Lower Manhattan, smashing the roofs of parked cars, authorities said. Mayor Bill de Blasio said the crane was being lowered as a precaution because of high winds when the accident occurred. “Thank God we didn’t have more injuries and lose more people,” he said. The crane landed across an intersection and stretched much of a block in the Tribeca neighbourhood, about 10 blocks north of the World Trade Center. There was damage to the roof of a nearby building, and debris littered the street. De Blasio said the person killed was sitting in a parked car.
