A construction worker is in the hospital after falling 40 feet at a construction site in San Francisco, fire officials confirmed.
He was part of a crew assembling a large crane at a project on 11th Street between Market and Mission streets. The worker was on an elevated platform when a pin came loose and sent both to the ground.
The worker is in serious condition at a local trauma center but is expected to survive.
Inspectors with California Division of Occupational Safety and Health are investigating.
