"The victim was injured in both legs and arm, his truck ran over him," the Bobigny prosecutor's office told AFP, without giving further details.

A worker was seriously injured on Monday on the site of the future athletes' village for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. An investigation is currently underway to "determine whether liability is involved", he continued.

Straddling the cities of Saint-Ouen, Ile-Saint-Denis and Saint-Denis, the site of the future Olympic village is currently in full swing with a view to delivery in the first quarter of 2024. This accident "is a tragedy for everyone, ”lamented Tuesday morning at a press conference Nicolas Ferrand, the general manager of Solideo (Olympic works delivery company), in charge of the permanent works of the Games.

In a press release, the CGT 93 estimated for its part that “this event once again highlights the scandalous question of risks at work in the construction sector.

Employees of construction sites and public works are prey to a level of danger in the exercise of their profession that is inadmissible!

In December, a delegation of several unions, French and international, met Solideo to denounce in particular the impossibility of visiting the sites.
