A loader crane operator died following incident in Ingolstadt, southern Germany, on Friday.

The man, 44, was loading a heavy electrical transformer cabinet onto his truck, when the concrete top broke away from the main structure and landed on him.
The one tonne top was lifted off of him by a loader crane owned by the local fire department, but it was clearly too late, and the man was declared dead at the scene.
