Builders Trapped When Building Collapses

REDMOND, OR -- Builders, working on a Redmond Construction site, were injured when the building's trusses collapsed on them.


Workers told rescuers they heard a loud, cracking noise, then the trusses that had already been installed all fell, pinning and trapping 2 workers who'd been using a scissor lift. One was able to get himself out from under the collapse.


Redmond Fire and Rescue worked to stabilize the trusses before the second worker could be rescued, he sustained minor injuries.

 

The building is located on Glacier and 15th in Redmond.
