TV Tower Death

Guest
Heard that a worker fell to their death from the WTVY-TV Tower Sunday. This
tower was formerly shared with WDJR. No details yet....
 
Details now.....Sunday morning approx. 10:15 CT 30 year old male fell from
500 foot level of the 2,000 foot stick while removing WDJR equipment from
the tower to be placed on their newly erected tower located nearby.
Pronounced dead on the scene. Investigation ongoing. Victim was from
Evansville, IN.
 
Those details are from a WTVY News 4 broadcast. They are not all that accurate.

This was a terrible accident and my thoughts and prayers go out to Danny's family. He was a good guy and so was the crew. One of the hardest working crews I've ever seen.

I hate this happened on my watch.
