Two men in their twenties were hospitalised last week, after a wall collapsed onto them at a building site.
The men were working to smooth off concrete on the wall when a rock supported by the wall collapsed. The Metropolitan Fire Brigade attended the accident and had to winch one of the men out of the rubble using a crane. One of the workers suffered an injured hip, while the other worker suffered an injured wrist.
WorkSafe Victoria issued a prohibition notice on the site, preventing any further work until an engineer assessed the site.
