An accident at the site of the new Texas Rangers stadium sent two construction workers to the hospital on Friday, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

What exactly happened is unknown, as first responders didn’t release any details regarding the incident. However, firefighters and paramedics reported to the scene shortly after 11 a.m., when injuries were first reported.

The workers were transported to local hospitals with what officials called non-life-threatening injuries.

The new ballpark is expected to open in March 2020.
