Baltimore firefighters recovered the body of a second man Saturday from the Amazon distribution warehouse in Southeast Baltimore which partially collapsed the night before.

Chief Roman Clark said that a 50-foot wall collapsed at the Amazon Fulfillment Center as a storm swept through the area. He said one man was found under debris Friday night and taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Clark said a second man who was unaccounted for Friday night was recovered around 7:30 a.m. Saturday. Clark said firefighters used heavy equipment to remove debris, including concrete to locate the second man.

1. --- don't know if they were Amazon employees or third-party contractors.

I wonder if the third-party contractors are covered by Workmens Comp? I'm sure they are supplied with a major benefits package.
