No one was injured and no third party property was damaged this morning when the jib of a crane buckled and bent downwards to resemble an inverted L. The crane belongs to Polidano Brothers.

The accident happened this morning in Triq San Pawl, Xemxija and workers immediately started working to repair the damage and remove any possible dangers.

A resident told timesofmalta.com they woke up this morning to watch a crane that had been rusting in the same position for the past four years or so collapsing.
