5 injured as lifter collapses at Islamabad airport

Five people were injured when an ambo-lifter, which is used for carrying patients who can't walk, collapsed at Islamabad's Benazir Bhutto International Airport, South Punjab News listened here on Tuesday.
Four passengers — including three women and a loader — were injured and shifted to a hospital for treatment, airport officials said, adding that the condition of the loader was critical.
The collapsing lifter slightly damaged the left wing of the Emirates Airline plane, with which it was attached. The incident took place at a time when the private airline's flight was about to leave for Dubai, officials said.
