Description
A construction worker died early Wednesday morning in Scripps Ranch after they became trapped in an open trench, San Diego-Fire Rescue said.
The industrial accident occurred at about 4 a.m. at Hoyt Park Drive and Scripps Ranch Boulevard, according to the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department.
The cave-in left the victim trapped under dirt and a "very large" concrete pipe that construction crews were installing as part of a water-system project, SDFRD Deputy Fire Chief Dan Eddy told reporters.
