Emergency personnel said the man was working on the structure when it collapsed before 8 am. The man was taken to Trigg County Hospital and later transferred to Skyline Medical Center in Nashville.
WKDZ reported that it was the second time the farmer’s market project has suffered a collapse. In September, no one was reported injured when roof trusses fell. After that incident the project was delayed until a few days ago.
Main Street was closed Saturday to remove lumber from the collapse in time for that night’s Cadiz Christmas Parade.
The project is being funded by community donations and a matching $93,000 grant from the Kentucky Agriculture Development Board.
