A serious accident occurred on Friday, April 24, after 8:00 a.m., in Kłobuczyn, in Polkowice County. The incident took place during construction work.
According to the officers, a man aged around 60 fell from scaffolding from a height of approximately two metres. The Głogów Emergency Medical Team arrived at the scene—before the firefighters—and provided first aid to the injured man.
The firefighters focused on securing the scene and preparing a landing site for the Lotnicze Pogotowie Ratunkowe helicopter.
The injured man suffered serious injuries, and an LPR helicopter was dispatched to the scene.
The circumstances of the incident will be investigated.
The most common accidents during construction work are those involving falls from heights, which is why the services regularly remind people of the need to use safety equipment and follow occupational health and safety rules.
