Three killed, six missing after ship crashes into Italian port tower

ROME- Three people were killed and six are missing after a container ship crashed into a control tower in the northern Italian port city of Genoa late on Tuesday, the Coast Guard said. The tower, which was more than 160 feet high looked much like the ones common at airports, collapsed after being struck by the prow of the ship, the Jolly Nero. Two of the dead were Coast Guard officials and the third was a pilot for the port, Coast Guard spokesman Filippo Marini said. “We are continuing the search for the missing,” he said.
