Contractor Dies from Fumes at Teen Challenge Building

Posted:

MIDLAND COUNTY - An investigation is underway following the death of a building contractor in Midland County.

Officials were on the scene near the Teen Challenge building on South County Road 1200 Friday night just before 10:00 where a group of contractors were reportedly working.

Early reports indicate they were working in an unventilated area and were overcome by fumes. One man died and three others were taken to the hospital.

None of the contractors names have been released. Authorities tell NewsWest 9 they will release more details on the death this week.
