The crane body, squeaky, sneaks across the opposite building.
It was about 8:30 am yesterday.
Three workers on the crane crashed as the 30-meter-high crane column collapsed during the dismantling of a new building in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon.
Two people were killed in this accident, and one was seriously injured.
All of the casualties were workers who were subcontracted by the contractor for crane dismantling.

The accidental crane was found to have been found to be intact at safety inspections two months ago.
In 2017, 17 people died in a crane accident, and the Ministry of Employment and Labor strengthened the safety management of its tower crane workshop.
Last month, we built a training center for training crane installation and dismantling for 5.8 billion won, but again, a human life accident occurred.
The police are investigating the exact circumstances of the accident, whether the safety instructions have been followed properly, and whether the crane itself has been a problem.
There was no abnormality in safety inspection… Tower crane collapsed, 3 casualties
