Local media reported that two cranes were working on the bridge to lift a truck that had crashed off the bridge into the river. However, as the truck was being lifted up to the bridge, the cable of one of the cranes suddenly snapped and the entire load was placed on the other crane which did not have sufficient power and was pulled down into the river.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

Fortunately, there were no casualties in the incident as the video footage shows the operator of the crane managing to get out of the cabin and swim to safety.</p>
