VENICE, Fla. (WWSB) - A worker was injured Friday when a circular saw cut into his leg at a job site in Venice.

It happened along Laurel Road, where the new Sarasota Memorial Hospital is being built. Firefighters were called around 9:15am when a man in his 20s working on the second floor of the building suffered a severe laceration to his leg from a circular saw.

The patient was stabilized before being brought to the ground by a ladder truck, then flown to Sarasota Memorial Hospital in Sarasota.
