Emergency responders in Orlando treated several injured workers after a construction site accident overnight.

All workers made it out of the building safely and received treatment. Five workers were injured; no injuries were life-threatening.

Investigators said as workers poured concrete on the fifth floor, the floor underneath them collapsed. The workers fell to the floor below, roughly eight to 12 feet. 

Code Enforcement was notified, but the results of their investigation were not immediately available.
