According to public safety officers, a safety mechanism failed during the setup, causing the mounted crane and part of the truck to tip over.

The operator was able to maneuver the truck back to its upright position without incident, Rubin said.

There were no injuries and no damage to the crane or truck. A report was not filed with JaxPort's Public Safety Department, Rubin said.
