CRANE OVERTURNS AND CRUSHES A GARAGE IN COBB COUNTY, GEORGIA WHEN IT TRIED LIFTING A TREE.



APRIL 1, 2015


A crane overturned yesterday in Cobb County, Georgia, to the north west of Atlanta, while lifting trees from the back yard of a home.

We have few details at this stage, but the crane’s boom came down on the garage of the home slicing it off from the house. We understand that no one was seriously injured in the incident.

We will update if and when we receive more information. In the meantime we have pointed out the risks and dangers with lifting trees from residential locations many times in the past.
