Worker suffers severe injury after being struck by excavator component - Laborers sustain critical injuries after collision
One unfortunate incident occurred at a construction site in Oberstadion, Alb-Donau district, where a 48-year-old worker ended up in the hospital after a gruesome incident involving an excavator, as the po-po (that's cop slang, mate!) reported. On Tuesday, our mate was securing a hefty cable drum being moved by a multi-ton excavator when disaster struck—apparently, an excavator attachment detached, and the bucket, landing on him like a rogue pancake in the wrong place.
Luckily, fellow workers stepped up, and with some heavy-duty lifting straps, managed to free the guy. The law enforcers (let's keep it clean!) are investigating whether the driver of the excavator was recklessly playing with danger.
