Three workers fell from a crane when 12 metres above the ground, and only one has survived.
Two construction workers, reported to be in their forties, have been killed in Murcia after falling from a crane where they were working in Fuente Álamo, and a third worker broke an arm. It seems that the basket which was carrying the men overturned for some reason causing them to fall from 12 metres height.

It happened at 2pm yesterday and the identity of the dead men has not yet been released.

One of the men died instantly, another about an hour and a half later when being attended to by medical experts.
