A 57-year-old part time cable vision camera operator died at a local hospital from injuries sustained in a 6-foot fall from scaffolding. The victim had been filming a parade as part of a video news article. Upon completion of the event, members of the film crew were assisting in the dismantling of the rented scaffold. While she assisted in dismantling the scaffold that had been utilized as the camera platform, the victim stepped back into a gap between two sheets of plywood and fell 6 feet striking her head on a concrete curb.
