According to one witness, nobody was hurt.
Basically: A big crane working on a building renovation at 15th and Chestnut (between City Paper and the Kanye Wendy's) dropped something heavy — probably a stack of sheet rock — and badly damaged its cab. A passing car was also damaged. According to one witness, nobody was hurt but when asked to confirm this and other details, a police officer on the scene said "no comment."
