A construction worker in his 30s was hospitalized Thursday after being hurt at a Toronto work site, according to emergency responders.
Police were called around 10:10 a.m. to reports of an injured worker near the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension project at the intersection of Eglinton Avenue West and Jane Street. Paramedics transported the man to hospital under emergency conditions.
