Employee dies after pinned under rubble in wall collapse

At approximately 12:45 p.m. on May 5, 1989, Employee #1 was working on a demolition site, cleaning and stacking house brick salvaged from the structures being demolished. He was working adjacent to a brick wall about 1 story high. It was a windy day and, according to coworkers on the site, the top 3 or 4 ft section of the wall collapsed on top of Employee #1. A heavy I-beam above a window frame fell with the wall section and pinned the employee under the rubble. He sustained a severe head laceration and was extricated from the rubble. Employee #1 was rushed to a hospital, where he died of his injuries.
