Second construction accident at New York's Ground Zero injures two

New York - A construction accident at the site where New York's World Trade Centre towers once stood injured two firemen on Thursday, five days after another two firefighters were killed in the same building. A forklift crashed to the ground from the 23rd floor of the former Deutsche Bank building, local broadcaster NY 1 reported. The forklift broke through a security awning and injured the two men - one critically - who were walking underneath. Another two firefighters were killed over the weekend battling flames that broke out in the building, which was damaged as the World Trade Centre towers collapsed in the September 11 2001 attacks. The Deutsche Bank tower has been empty since, though remains of people killed in the terrorist attack continue to be found over the years in its wreckage. After a year-long battle, authorities in February began tearing the building down floor-by-floor. © 2007 dpa - Deutsche Presse-Agentur
