The 80 tonne Terex Demag AC 80-1, owned by Nationwide Crane Hire, seems to have overturned due to an outrigger/ground related issue. Thankfully no one was hurt or injured in the incident.

The crane company apparently organised accommodation for the residents overnight and plans to recover the crane today.
