NEW YORK (AP) — Police say a worker was killed when a forklift fell on his chest at a construction site in Queens.
Police say 54-year-old Min Baz Sik, of Flushing, was found unconscious at the site on 56th Drive at about 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. He was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. It wasn’t clear how the incident happened.
It’s the second time this month a worker has been killed by a forklift. Last week, a 22-year-old Brooklyn man was attempting to push a forklift up a ramp when it rolled back and pinned him against a wall.
