One man is dead, another is in hospital after a concrete retaining wall collapsed on them this morning in north Burnaby.
Worksafe BC’s Megan Johnston says the two were laying pipe in a trench at the time.
It’s not clear why the wall gave way.
“Investigators are looking into this incident. The employer was J. Cote & Son Excavating.”
It happened at a work site near Edinburgh Street and Gilmore Avenue.
The condition of the man in hospital is not known.
