A section of a construction crane is seen falling from a high-rise building under construction during an earthquake Sunday, March 31, 2002, in Taipei. Police later verified that the accident resulted in the deaths of five. Besides the crane crash, the quake, with an epicenter off of east central town of Hualien, 180 kilometers (108 miles) east of Taipei, started fires and cracked walls as it shook the island.
