Fair Lawn NJ, Members of the Fair Lawn Heavy Rescue Squad were dispatched to the 3500 block of Berdan Avenue, Fair Lawn early Wednesday evening, 08/11, to assist Fair Lawn EMS personnel rescue an adult male worker who was injured after falling into an open pit at a construction site. At least two (2) ladders, heavy roping, a Stokes basket, and plenty of muscle were used to extricate the victim from the pit’s bottom in order that he could be easily transferred to a waiting ambulance. Fair Lawn Police was also on the scene of the mishap.
We are sure OSHA will show up to the site.
