Another crane collapses in Manhattan
A crane snapped in half this morning on the Upper East Side killing 2 people. The crane was examined yesterday and there were no violations. There must be something about the make or model of these cranes. Maybe better inspection techniques are needed.
The crane tore the terraces off the building next to it. The crane operator and another person died. I guess we are fortunate that just two people died and many others could have been hurt or killed. The crane operator, Don Leo was 30 years old and engaged to be married in two weeks. The other worker who died was 27 years old.
Three months ago, the same thing happened and it killed 7 people.
