Family members of one of the workers killed when the garage at Miami Dade College West campus collapsed have filed a lawsuit against five companies involved in the construction.
The garage was almost complete when a part of it collapsed on Oct. 10, killing four workers.
Samuel Perez, 53, was driving a cement truck and the time of the collapse and was trapped by the rubble in the truck’s cab.
It took rescue workers 17 hours to reach him, after amputating his legs to free him. He did not survive. He died three hours later in the hospital.
Now his widow Migdalia Lopez is suing Ajax Building Corporation and other companies contracted for the project. Allegations include gross negligence, failure to comply with safety standards and rushing the operation to meet a deadline.
