MANILA, Philippines – A laborer died after falling from the 16th floor of a building that is still under construction in Quezon City Friday night.
Police said Bernardo Tuvilla, 39, was already dead when a passerby found him at around 7:15 p.m. near the ground-floor elevator of the Le-Gard 1 building.
Police Officer 2 Jogene Hernandez said Tuvilla, a resident of Obando, Bulacan, worked as a mason.
Fellow workers took Tuvilla to the Quirino Memorial Medical Center for treatment but he was declared dead on arrival at around 7:35 p.m. by Dr. Joan Abraham Baguilat.
The other workers at the site told police they failed to notice Tuvilla falling as they were busy installing electrical pipes at the 16th floor of the building. –Jerry Botial (The Philippine Star)
