A forklift operator was taken to the hospital Wednesday morning after a construction incident in Boston's Seaport neighborhood.

The red forklift tipped forward in the area of Sleeper Street at Seaport Boulevard.

Video from the scene shows the machine balanced on two wheels with a load of construction supplies pinning the fork to the ground. First responders put braces under the machine to stabilize it in that position during their work.

The extent of the operator's injuries are not clear, but OSHA has been called in to investigate.
