A 21-year-old worker was killed after he fell 180 feet off of a water tower in Pasadena, Maryland. “The victim was a worker employed by a private contracting company and was working on communications equipment that is located atop the tower which is approximately 180 feet tall,” the release states.
“Paramedics aggressively attempted to resuscitate the worker at the scene however the victim was pronounced dead a short time later.” County police said that the Maryland Office of Safety and Health and the Maryland State Police will be investigating the accident. It’s always terrible hearing about deaths like this, but they do act as a reminder that safety should always be priority number one.
