The crane came to rest on the steelwork
The crane owned by Manchester based Winterlift came to rest on the steelwork of the building it was working on and no one was injured in the incident.
Winterlift and the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) are investigating the incident in co-operation with the manufacturer.
Vertikal Comment
It would appear from the stance of the crane that an outrigger has given way, BUT this purely based on the way the crane is sitting.
