2 killed, 2 injured in local shipbuilding accident

TWO people were killed after a hoist crane toppled over in a Shanghai shipyard on Wednesday afternoon, local authorities said.

The accident happened at Changxing Shipyard, which is run by the Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Group) Co Ltd, a subsidiary of state-owned China State Shipbuilding Corp.

Two others injured were rushed to hospital.

A similar accident in another one of the company's shipyards killed 36 in 2001.
