Three workers were injured early Thursday afternoon, March 19, 2009, when a section of roof fell on them at the Procter & Gamble construction site in Corinne. The Box Elder County Sheriff's Office was called to the scene just after noon. Chief Deputy Kevin Potter said all three men were properly harnessed to the roof, and there was no one on the ground beneath them. "They were banged up a bit, but their injuries were relatively minor," he said.
CORINNE, Box Elder County — Three people suffered minor injuries when a portion of a roof collapsed at the Proctor & Gamble plant under construction here, authorities said.
The Box Elder County Sheriff's Office was called to the plant about noon Thursday on a report of a roof collapse.
"They were putting up a roof and the corner of it came undone, and it was drooping and hanging," Chief Deputy Kevin Potter said Thursday. "No one on the ground was in any danger, and a few guys working on the roof in harnesses got banged up."
The three were taken to local hospitals to be treated for what Potter described as "bumps and scratches."
