Eight workers suffered serious injuries Saturday after a scaffolding along with many construction tools collapsed at a building site lin Hanoi.

The workers were working in the basement of a 36-storey building of the Indochina Plaza when the accident happened, local police said.

The injured men were rushed to nearby hospitals for treatment.

Police said they were trying to determine the number of people working at the site when the accident occurred to ascertain if there was anyone trapped in the wreckage.

The US$150 million Indochina Plaza, invested in by the Hanoi Housing and Trade Center, is located on Xuan Thuy Street in Cau Giay District.
