At least two cranes have reportedly collapsed in Miami as Hurricane Irma made landfall on Sunday.
According to WSVN-TV, the first crane crashed next to a federal prison. Although no one was hurt, officials had been warned that there was a danger of cranes collapsing days before Irma hit the city.
NBC News reported Sunday afternoon that a second crane had collapsed on a high-rise building that was under construction. The crane was said to be 40 stories high when it collapsed.
