OSHA Investigates Death of Maine Worker in Structure Collapse

ROCKLAND, Maine — The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating the death of a worker who was trapped when a structure collapsed.

Workers were demolishing an attached garage when the structure collapsed on a worker Saturday morning.

Firefighters used inflatable rescue bags to lift the roof before tossing a rope underneath to pull the man out.

A LifeFlight helicopter was summoned to transport the man to a hospital, but he did not survive, officials said.
