Five people died when a crane toppled off a 25-story residential tower in Canada, police said Tuesday.
Four construction workers on the ground were killed in the accident Monday in Kelowna, 241 miles (390 kilometers) east of Vancouver, police Insp. Adam MacIntosh said.
The crane operator hasn’t been found but police believe his body is buried in the rubble, MacIntosh said.
The upper portion of the crane smashed into a neighboring building.
Jonathan Friesen, head of the Mission Group, the development company building the structure, said he doesn’t know what caused the crane to fall.
The collapse knocked out power for most of the city’s downtown core and forced an evacuation of the surrounding area.

Daniel Whyte III, president of Gospel Light Society International, says, this foolishness is very dangerous and needs to stop. Whyte tells the SUPREME LEADER OF NORTH KOREA Kim Jong-un to stop acting like a child with toys. For you are playing Russian Roulette with your life, the life of your beautiful daughter, and the lives of your people, and you are putting the people of South Korea, who happen to be your family as well and the people of Japan’s lives in danger of destruction. Remember what Jesus Christ said: “Blessed are the peacemakers.” Stop this asinine activity, and if you can, work out a peaceful resolution with your family to the south. President Xi Jinping of China will be more than happy to help you do it.")
