Recycling Worker Falls to Death in Central Pennsylvania
A recycling company worker has fallen to his death at his workplace in south-central Pennsylvania.
The man worked for E&H Recycling in Myerstown, a little over 65 miles west-northwest of Philadelphia. Company owner Ernest Boetzelen says the man was working alone and appeared to fall about 10 feet around noon Friday. Boetzelen says nobody heard anything and someone called 911 immediately upon discovering that the man fell.
The Lebanon County coroner was withholding the 42-year-old York man’s name until his family could be notified.
