The container ship Jolly Nero is pictured after crashing into a control tower in the northern Italian port city of Genoa May 8, 2013. Three people were killed and six are missing after the container ship crashed into a control tower in Genoa late on Tuesday, the Coast Guard said. The tower, which was more than 50 metres (160 feet) high and looked much like the ones common at airports, collapsed after being struck by the prow of the Jolly Nero.
