Employee falls from highway overpass and is killed

At 3:00 a.m. on September 19, 2018, an employee, for an unknown reason, stepped directly on top of the concrete median wall of an overpass. After walking back and forth on top of the wall, he jumped and landed 50 feet below onto the groundcover next to the freeway that connected a ramp. Emergency services were contacted by coworkers and, upon arrival, the employee was taken to a nearby hospital. The employee was admitted and treated for multiple rib fractures and other internal injuries, which he later died from.
