A construction worker has recently been killed in an accident that took place while on the job.  The accident occurred when a house fell off of the foundation it was on and struck and killed a worker. 

The worker who was killed was 57 years-of-age.  The worker was killed after the other workers were attempting to lower the house when the house slipped.  All the other workers were able to get away except for the victim.  

The accident is currently under investigation.  Authorities hope to have a better idea of what caused the work accident to occur and take the life of the 57 year-old man.
