Mayor Bill de Blasio says the person killed in the Lower Manhattan crane collapse was sitting in a parked car.
Two other people are in serious condition and another person has minor injuries. The mayor says none of the injuries appear to be life-threatening.
The crane collapsed into the street Friday morning, stretching much of a block in the Tribeca neighborhood. The crane’s boom landed across several cars, smashing their roofs, as debris littered the street.
An employee at the New York crane company says an investigation is underway.
The employee at Bay Crane said he was a manager but would not give his name when reached by The Associated Press. He declined further comment.
A crane bearing the company’s name was overturned at the scene of Friday morning’s collapse.
