The SQ said emergency services were called around 2:30 p.m. to Marie-Victorin Road near Jean-Talon Street. Preliminary information suggests a forklift operating above ground level fell onto a metal structure, causing it to collapse. 'Unfortunately, an individual was declared dead at the scene. Two other people were transported to hospital with serious injuries, but their lives are not in danger,' an SQ spokesperson said. SQ investigators, along with Quebec's workplace safety board, the CNESST, are investigating.
