ID Man hospitalized after construction accident

BLACKFOOT, Idaho (AP) - A southern Idaho man was hospitalized after he was crushed by a shifting crane at a construction site.

Blackfoot Police Captain Kurt Asmus said the 33-year-old Blackfoot man was working at the site Monday when a crane that had been loaded onto a flatbed truck shifted, pinning him between the truck and the crane arm.

The man was taken by air ambulance to Portneuf Medical Center in Pocatello. His name and condition have not been released.
