The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating the workplace tragedy.

No other details were immediately available.

The worker was likely helping build MGM Resorts International’s grandstand for VIP race viewing in Bellagio Lake, where the famous fountains are located.

The 3.8-mile Vegas Grand Prix circuit is set to wind its way through downtown Sin City in November.
