Two men in Brooklyn suffered minor injuries when a construction crane hauling building materials collapsed onto a parked dollar van and onto the parapet of a store Tuesday morning. The injured men were both sitting in the dollar van when the crane suddenly toppled off a wooden skid onto its side on Glenwood Road just off of Nostrand Avenue in Flatbush at about 11:15am on Feb. 18. Fire officials said the crane operator, working for Newcastle Building Products of N.J., tried to compensate for the weight of the materials, but was unable to correct.
