A construction worker was injured after the cable of a construction crane carrying more than 4 tons of metal snapped and fell at Aguilar Street near Recto in Binondo, Manila.
According to a dzBB report by Carlo Mateo on Wednesday, the machine was transporting the materials when the incident occurred at around 6 a.m.
The broken crane cable also damaged a parked pick-up truck, tricycles, a bicycle, and part of a nearby building.
Internet in the area also suffered interruptions as the cable also damaged some connection lines.
Barangay officials in the area were able to immediately respond and blocked the affected area, while construction work was temporarily paused.
The contractor vowed to shoulder the medical expenses of the injured construction worker.
It also assured the affected parties that they will be compensated for all damages. .—Jiselle Anne Casucian/AOL, GMA Integrated News
