Quintana was assisted by other employees using a crane.As Quintana was climbing the ladder on his way out, he also fell.Rescuers rushed Quintana into the St. Michael Hospital in Orion town.Investigation showed that the two victims proceeded to the chlorination tank at around 9 a.m. Monday to open the plunge for water intake from the sea. After opening the plunge, Jao climbed the ladder but fell after he allegedly inhaled a poisonous substance inside. –Manila Times
