Floor collapses during concrete pour in LA, injuring 7 workers

LA construction collapse

While working on a concrete pour at a jobsite in Los Angeles Wednesday evening, the floor the crew was standing on collapsed beneath them.

According to a report from CBSLA, seven workers were injured in the collapse which sent them crashing to the first floor below. The site reports the structure appears to be residential.

Miraculously, none of the workers were trapped in the rubble of the collapse and none of their injuries were considered life-threatening.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating what caused the collapse.

The LA incident comes just a week after a worker was killed in a floor collapse in Michigan.
