Tokyo police said the crane was lifting an excavator when it toppled over onto a van, a truck and one other vehicle. They say a man who was trapped in the van died, and a man in the truck was seriously injured with a broken leg.

 

Both men were reportedly involved in the construction work. The police investigation is ongoing.
