Man Found Crushed to Death in BART Montgomery Street Station Elevator Shaft
12th March 2013
‘When you go … to San Francisco; … be sure to stay … out of the ‘vator shaft….’
BART officials are calling the death of a man crushed to death in an elevator shaft at one of its San Francisco stations “upsetting and disturbing,” and said they have as many questions as answers about what happened.
Perhaps they were filming a sequel to Mission Impossible. I hear that they do shoot movies in California — although not as much as they used to, before prices went up so much. Oh, and taxes; taxes are pretty high in California.
The person who was stuck in the elevator told rescue personnel that he was riding the elevator when he heard a “crunching sound” in tandem with a scream as the elevator stalled, Trost said. The dead man had some personal belongings on the top of the elevator shaft, but BART officials stopped short of saying whether they were sure the man was living there.
Let that be a lesson to us all.
