Neuville Dr death13
Emergency responders work to extricate the victim of a construction accident on Neuville Drive.

Update: The man killed in the collapse has been identified as Selvin Antulio Lopez-Castillo of Plainfield. Police said OSHA has determined that the workers “failed to meet proper trench safety requirements and a lack of shoring,” and a stop-work order has been issued until the investigation is complete.

A contractor working on a new house on Neuville Drive died May 4 after he was apparently buried when the 8-foot-deep trench in which he was working collapsed.
