working in a cherry-picker has been crushed
to death in an accident at the Port of New
Orleans in the United States over the weekend.
According to a statement from Carnival
Cruise Lines, the worker was performing
maintenance duties when he became wedged
between the picker and a platform holding one
of the lifeboats on the ship.
Medical personnel attended to the worker,
whose identity was not released.
