Worker at Disney Falls, Rushed to a Hospital

October 5, 2009

Anaheim - A construction subcontractor working for the Disneyland Resort was injured when he fell off a trench Monday morning and was immediately taken to a hospital, reports indicate.

The unidentified man suffered back pains after falling off a 5-foot trench at around 8:41 am in an area to be used only by employees of the resort.

Responding firefighters feared the man could have sustained spinal cord injury, so the victim was transported to the hospital with a back board to avoid further damage.

There was no reported delay at Disneyland’s operation despite the man’s accident before the resort’s opening hour.
