A truck mounted crane collapsed near New York City’s Penn Station on Monday night, and has since been removed. Investigators told CBS WLNY that the crane was hoisting beams as part of a sidewalk shed installation when it came crashing down, sending debris to the ground.
The city's 34th Street was closed as a result, and reopened after the crane was removed.
One person sustained a foot injury from the falling debris. According to the article, boom trucks are not required to have Department of Buildings permits. The DoB is now investigating the incident.
