Six workers injured in Durango construction accident

The Clark County Fire Department's rescue team responded today to reports of six workers injured at the Durango Diamond Trails residential housing project in the southwest valley at 11:25 a.m.

Several fire and rescue units responded, but two teams handled the rescue after trusses collapsed, said Assistant Fire Chief Russ Cameron.

There were four injuries, none of them major, and two ambulances have responded to the site, Cameron said.
