A worker suffered an injury in a construction accident on Erie's bayfront Tuesday.
 
It was reported at the Bayfront Parkway and Holland St. around 4:38 p.m.
 
The victim suffered serious injuries in an incident with an excavator, which reportedly fell into a hole, according to reports from the scene.
