DANIA BEACH, Fla. – A man was injured while working at the Playboy Marina Friday in Dania Beach.
A cable snapped while several workers used a crane to hoist a railing onto a ship. The damage caused a support strap to fail and strike the worker, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office Department of Fire Rescue.
