Crane Collapses in Manhattan; 2 Dead








Crane Collapse Renews Fears
A
crane snapped and smashed into an apartment building Friday, killing
two workers in the city's second such tragedy in 2 1/2 months and
renewing fears about the safety of hundreds of cranes towering over the
New York skyline. Acting Buildings Commissioner Robert LiMandri said
Friday that investigators "will be focusing on a particular weld that
failed'' on the crane, and noted that the 24-year-old crane's model is
out of production and one of only four in the city.
