The province confirms three people were on the roof of the building when they were struck by a piece of falling equipment.

The workers were rescued by Cold Lake Fire Rescue using an aerial and transported to hospital.

A spokesperson for Cold Lake says the call initially came into 911 as a roof collapse, but that was inaccurate.
