A construction accident at the Spavinaw Lake dam in Delaware County injures several workers.

Construction workers were moving a temporary dam when a bolt holding it down sheared. The dam floated up quickly, snagged some lines which then hit three workers knocking them over.

A fourth worker was hit in the face by the hook of the crane and then fell about 30 feet into the water. He is still being treated at a Tulsa hospital.

The other three men are home recovering.
