Investigation Summary
On the morning of September 4, 1985, three employees of River Wrecking and Salvage Company were removing material from the roof of a building. A roof section approximately 5 feet 5 inches wide by 100 feet long was being removed a piece at a time and being dropped to the floor 31 feet 6 inches. Employee #1 dropped a 4 inch by 4 inch by 4 foot timber through the roof opening. He was killed when then fell to the pile of debris and crushed his head upon impact. The 4-inch by 4-inch by 4-foot timber was a part of the wall that guarded the opening that was being removed.
