Late yesterday we learned that the Department of Labor and Industries took the crane out of commission yesterday. The crane was damaged according to some reports.
Senior project manager Richard Teddy of Turner Construction told The Associated Press a device connected to the crane was cutting roof supports and didn't release quickly enough, causing the crane to be yanked as the roof collapsed.
He said crews have identified some adjustments to prevent a repeat when they bring down the other half of the roof in the coming days.
Here's what happened Tuesday, Crews attempted to cut five vertical roof supports. But after four had been cut, the roof collapsed, pulling the cutting device and causing a bouncing effect on the crane.
