Well I'll Huff & I'll Puff & I'll Blow Your House In






Yesterday afternoon a building collapsed along Rt. 50 on John Deer Road near the Shorebirds Stadium. One person went to the Hospital while two others were injured and cared for on the scene.

As the first photo show what was supposed to be the end product, something went severely wrong. OSHA came aboard, (3rd photo) to investigate what just happened? The next to the last photos shows one of the workers hard hat still lying where the building collapsed on him. I'll just have to GUESS here and say that his HEAD is OK?

I personally found evidence that perhaps the crane was involved, yet they deny that being the case. Three trusses were very damages yet lying outside the wreckage as if the crane had still been attached to them and pulled them out after everything started collapsing. Granted, maybe someone who shouldn't have been using the crane was doing so after the main operator left, who knows? Buildings just don't fall like this one did without some help. OSHA will get to the bottom of it though.
