CHANDLER, Ariz. — Authorities say three workers were injured Wednesday after a partial construction collapse at Intel’s Ocotillo campus in Chandler.
City fire department officials say the three employees of a construction company had to be hoisted out of the site in a crane basket after the 4 p.m. incident.
They say all three are hospitalized in stable condition with non-life-threatening injuries.
Authorities say the partial collapse occurred about 25 feet below ground level in a construction area at the facility near Dobson and Ocotillo roads.
Officials say the collapse caused a concrete partition to trap the workers who could not get out on their own.
It's unclear what caused the collapse at the site where Intel’s two new semiconductor fabrication facilities broke ground last year.
