I seen FDNY bring out his body on new street at at around 215pm. Black male 240 lbs 6 foot probably like 40-50 year old. Looked critical condition. Prayers to him.

Manhattan *Confined Space* Box 0046. 1 Wall St off Broadway. Person fell down shaft 6 stories below grade from the lobby.

Maybe this isn’t possible, but it would be really cool if Citizen provided some way of identifying these victims so people could donate or show support. I know that’s logistically and legally super complicated but it would be cool.

@SnorgonOfBorkkad you’re a good person. Wish there were more people with beautiful intentions like yours.
