FARGO - A man suffered leg injuries in an industrial accident in south Fargo Wednesday afternoon, March 8, officials confirmed.

Three Fargo Fire Department crews were dispatched about 4:30 p.m. to Office Max at 4360 13th Ave. S., acting Battalion Chief Ryan Viergutz said. Viergutz said he didn't know the nature of the man's injuries, but he said the first fire crew on the scene called to cancel the response from the other two teams en route.

A Red River Regional Dispatch Center dispatcher indicated in calls dispatching responders to the scene that an individual had reportedly suffered leg injuries in a skid-steer loader accident.

Key Contracting of West Fargo had several construction vehicles at the construction site on the west side of the building.

A person answering the telephone at Key Contracting confirmed that one of the company's workers had been struck on a leg and taken to a local hospital. He said he could release no further information on the incident.
