The 55-year-old worker was pronounced dead at an area hospital.

HOUSTON — A construction worker died after falling from scaffolding on Wednesday at a construction site in northwest Harris County, according to the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable's Office.

In a post to social media, Constable Mark Herman said that the worker was unresponsive after the fall and was taken to an area hospital. That's where he was pronounced dead, Herman said.

It happened in a neighborhood near FM 2920 and the Grand Parkway near Tomball. At this point, we don't know the man's condition or the circumstances of the fall.
