NEW YORK (AP) — Crews with search dogs and heat-sensing cameras sought survivors — or more victims — Sunday in the rubble of an apartment building crushed in a giant crane collapse that killed four people and injured at least 17.
The four were working on a new high-rise condo building, killed on the job in what Mayor Michael Bloomberg called one of the city’s worst construction accidents.
“I heard a big crash, and I saw dust immediately,” said Maureen Shea, a 66-year-old retired banker who was lying in bed talking on the phone when she glanced out her window and saw bricks raining from the sky. “I thought the crane was coming in my window.”
