Two men who died in the Crewe crane collapse incident earlier this week have been named.

David Newall, 36, from Bradford and Rhys Barker, 18, from Castleford were working at a building site in Dunwoody Way on Wednesday (June 21) when their crane collapsed.

The two men died at the scene.

A third man who was also working on the crane was taken to Royal Stoke with serious injuries.

The 45-year-old, from Glossop, remains in a stable condition.

Both post mortems, which took place yesterday, concluded that the causes of death were crush injuries.

An investigation into the circumstances is being carried out in conjunction with the Health and Safety Executive.
