Worker dies after being crushed by ship's anchor.
A MAN has died after being crushed by a falling anchor while he worked in a dry dock. Fire crew and staff at A&P Tees on Teesside were forced to use a crane to lift the anchor as it pinned the 45-year-old to the floor. Paramedics and a doctor from the Great North Air Ambulance (GNAA) sedated the man while they battled to save his life. He was flown to James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough suffering from severe chest injuries. He later died. The accident happened just after 11am this morning. Sarah Booth, spokesperson for GNAA, said: […]This content is for BHHC Safety Center policy holders.
