Employee dies in fall through air duct

Employee #1, a journeyman electrician at a construction site, had been employed since August 13, 1991. He left the ground floor work location to determine the reason for a power failure on the sixth floor. He fell 34 ft through an open 6 ft by 9 ft air duct shaft before reaching the sixth floor. Employee #1 died. Circumstances causing the fall remain unknown. Because work was not in progress, workers were not on the mezzanine-level entry to witness the employee's fall through the air duct shaft.
