An accident at a Ricmond construction site has left a worker fighting for his life.

Megan Johnston with Worksafe BC explains what she knows of what happened this afternoon at the River Green condo development site on River Road.

"Preliminary reports were that glass panels were being unloaded when one slipped and struck the worker and I understand that the worker sustained very serious injuries."

Johnston says fatal and serious incident investigators are looking into what led to the accident.

Ledcor is the the construction company in charge of the site.
