A worker has died after falling from a 100 foot cell tower in Saline County. Lieutenant Scott Courtney with the Saline County Sheriff's Office tells FOX16 that it happened at a tower on Cross Road around 10:30am.
Terry Thompson ,51, was a sub-contractor from Lucedale Mississippi. Thompson worked for Dynamic Wireless who was hired to deconstruct the tower.
Thompson worked on towers for 37 years.
The Saline County Sheriff's Department and OSHA are both conducting investigations. Foul play is not suspected.
