GLASSCOCK COUNTY -- An industrial accident sent an oilfield worker to the hospital Tuesday.

    The accident happened Tuesday morning near the intersection of TX 158 and TX 137 in Glasscock County. A man apparently fell off a pumping unit, and that worker might have broken his hip.
   
    CareStar was called out to fly the man to the hospital, but the helicopter wasn't able to take off because of the weather.


    Big 2 is still waiting to hear what caused the worker to fall in the first place, and to get his current condition. We'll keep you updated as we learn more.
