"...A man who suffered career-ending back injury after falling through the second floor of Veterans Stadium while operating a Caterpillar front loader during the site's demolition reaches a $1.88 million settlement with the general contractor in charge of the new stadium's construction.
The root cause of Gilmore's injury, Laffey said, was the neither Driscoll/Hunt nor Brandenburg checked for structural soundness prior to Gilmore operating the front loader on the second floor. The responsibility for that slip up, he said, ultimately falls with Driscoll/Hunt."
