3 dead, several injured after ship crashes into control tower in Italian port of Genoa





At least three people have died and several are missing after a ship crashed into a control tower in the Italian port of Genoa, reports say.
Part of the tower was said to have crashed into the water when it was hit by the Jolly Nero container ship.
About 10 people were in the tower at the time of the accident, and some of them are feared to be in the water.
Four people have been taken to hospital, says the Corriere Della Sera newspaper.
The Jolly Nero is almost 240 metres (787 feet) long and weighs over 40,500 tonnes.
It was bound for Messina, Sicily, at the time of the crash, reports say.

The accident is said to have occurred at about 23:00 on Tuesday night (21:00 GMT), when a shift change was taking place in the control tower - meaning more people were inside.
Genoa's prosecutor is investigating the incident, Corriere Della Sera says. The ship has been impounded and the captain is being questioned.
