Three Construction Cranes Collapsed In Miami During Storm

Cranes at three South Florida high rises under construction collapsed in the face of heavy winds as Hurricane Irma ripped through the area on Sunday, days after authorities warned about dangers to cranes from the approaching storm. No injuries were reported in any of the three collapses, and investigations would begin after the storm cleared, officials said. Soon after one of the cranes collapsed, the chief executive of the company developing the building told Reuters he was attending the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York when the accident occurred and had just learned about it.
