Construction worker injured in downtown accident
Posted: 12:23 PM

One downtown construction worker was taken to hospital after jack hammering into some still-energized hydro lines this morning.

The man, who was working at the Glasshouse condo building, was conscious and talking to emergency workers before being taken away in an ambulance.

The worksite has been temporarily shut down until Workplace Safety officials arrive to assess the situation.

Hargrave Street between Portage and Ellice avenues had been closed off previously for the workers and had nothing to do with the accident.
