Five people were injured, including a firefighter, when a crane collapsed into a neighboring building after catching fire in New York City on Wednesday morning, authorities said.
The crane was operating on 570 10th Avenue — an under-construction, vacant building near Hudson Yards, between West 41st and West 42nd Streets — when the cabin area suddenly caught fire around 7:30 a.m., the NYPD said.
The top portion collapsed, striking a building across the street before crashing onto the ground below, according to cops and the footage.
