Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:00 a.m. on December 30, 2008, an insurance estimator was on the roof of an old warehouse in the warehouse district of New Orleans, LA, in order to write-up an estimate for replacing the roof. As he proceeded across the roof, he walked across a rotted out section. Unable to support the estimator's weight, the roof decking collapsed. He fell through the roof to a concrete slab 35 ft below and was killed.
