CSW BREAKING: Construction Mishap Injures 3 in KC-MO

A scaffold collapsed at a building undergoing renovations in Midtown KC-MO- injuring 3 people.


The incident occurred about 11:35 a.m. Thursday morning at 6301 Rockhill Road.

KC-MO FD-EMS reports that a scaffolding collapsed- with at least one worker plunging "from a 3rd-story to a 1st-floor roof" of the building.

The most serious injury was said to be a Hispanic male- "46-year-s-old" who was taken to a nearby hospital in serious condition from his injuries.

Two others injured at the site were said to have mostly minor injuries.
