IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) — A large construction crane partially fell into an underground parking garage in eastern Idaho.

Authorities tell KIFI-TV (http://bit.ly/1lYhZSO) that the crane driver on Tuesday attempted to turn in a tight spot when the back of the vehicle broke through the roof of the parking garage in Idaho Falls.

Police say there are no injuries but a Jeep parked in the garage sustained damage.

A bigger crane arrived to pull the first crane out of the hole.

The parking garage has been closed while plans are made for repairs.
