A semi truck with a crane tips backwards, sending the boom crashing through a garage in Menasha.

According to police, a company was working to remove some trees at a home on the 500 block of River Way on Wednesday when the accident happened.      

"At one point  they had extended the boom and something went wrong where the vehicle ended up tipping over. The boom ended up striking the attached garage, damaging the garage and a boat that was inside the garage," said Deputy Chief Brett Halderson.

No one got hurt.
