A worker reportedly had his armed crushed at a Queen Creek construction site early Tuesday morning.

According to officials, the 44-year-old man reached into a piece of equipment to clean out something he thought had become stuck.

His arm was then caught in a roller, crushing it severely between the shoulder and elbow, according to an official with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

The man was flown by helicopter to Scottsdale Osborn Hospital in serious condition.

The construction site is for a Jack in the Box being built near Rittenhouse and Ellsworth roads.
