Investigation Summary
Employee #1, an electrician, was standing by an electrical box approximately 24 feet away from an 8-inch masonry block wall that had been completed 2 hours earlier. The wall was 20 feet high and 30 feet wide and was not braced or otherwise supported. A strong gust of wind caused the wall to collapse. Several masonry blocks struck Employee #1 about the head and body, inflicting severe head injuries and causing his death.
