Incident on Dec 2, 2016 (fatal): Employee dies in building collapse

At 10:30 a.m. on December 2, 2016, an employee was removing an interior wall. While removing two load bearing walls of two buildings that were going to be made into one, the entire structure collapsed on top of the employee. The employee was killed by blunt force trauma to the chest along with asphyxia due to the amount of material that had trapped him in the rubble of the building.
