Elon Musk's tunnel-digging firm The Boring Company's operations in Las Vegas were suspended after a worker sustained a "crushing injury." As local fire department and OSHA spokespeople told Fortune, authorities received a call about an "industrial/machinery incident" on Wednesday evening. The injured worker had to be lifted out of the tunnel using an on-site crane and transported to a local hospital. "The patient is reported to be stable," a spokeswoman for the patient told Fortune.

In his comments, Hill noted that Tesla's FSD tests in the Boring Company's underground tunnels in Las Vegas have been going on for months. However, the full-self driving Teslas have reportedly not been carrying passengers during the tests. Interestingly enough, Hill noted that the FSD-driven vehicles have not had any incidents in the Boring Company tunnels yet, though safety drivers have been required to intervene "periodically."
