The employee was observed walking over to a work bench and appeared to be fine when he reached out his hand to steady himself on a nearby speaker. The employee suddenly collapsed bringing down the speaker with him and dropping his phone. This was initially reported as an electrocution but was ruled out upon further investigation. The employee had an underlying heart condition and died from an aneurism.
