Investigation Summary
On February 13, 1998, Employee #1 was on a metal runway above the suspended ceiling of a theater auditorium. He was apparently using the handle of a broom to extend his reach when he fell approximately 36 ft from the runway and through the ceiling onto a concrete slab. Employee #1 sustained multiple injuries and died while being transported to the hospital. At the time of the accident, he was in a location beyond the railing system of the runway.
