Man injured after excavator falls into unseen void.
A worker was taken to hospital this morning when the excavator he was driving flipped after hitting a hole at a demolition site in Virginia.
Capt. Mike Hicks with the Norfolk Fire Department told WAVY.com the incident occurred in the 200 block of North Military Highway before 9:45 a.m. when crews originally received a call of a structure collapse with individuals trapped.
Once crews arrived on scene, they found an employee with a demolition company trapped inside the excavator. The driver was moving across some rubble when the rubble fell into a small hole. The driver then struck the hole and flipped the excavator, Hicks said.
