A construction worker is recovering in hospital after being trapped under a concrete pillar on a housing site in Stoke-on-Trent on Friday.
Lovell Partnerships is transforming the former Edensor High School site in Longton into a new 193 home scheme.
A Staffordshire Police spokesman told the Stoke Sentinel: “We were called to Edensor Road following concerns for the welfare of a man at a building site. A man had sustained serious injuries after becoming trapped under a concrete pillar.
“He was taken to hospital by ambulance. He remains in a serious but stable condition in hospital. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has been informed and attended the scene. Our inquiries are continuing alongside HSE.”
