WorkSafeBC is investigating after a troubling incident involving a construction crane in Vancouver.
Police and the work safety watchdog were called to a job site on East Hastings Street near Glen Drive where the crane reportedly dropped a load.
Video from the scene showed the main line of the crane dangling loosely, and the point at which it appears to have failed.
Photos from the site showed large metal beams on the ground, some close to the street.
One witness told Global News at least two beams fell.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Officials have closed one westbound lane of East Hastings Street to traffic.
WorkSafeBC said it was notified about an incident around 10:45 a.m. and that prevention officers were on site.
The incident comes less than a month after WorkSafeBC implemented new regulations after a series of crane accidents, some of them fatal.
