BROOKLINE, MASS. (WHDH) - An investigation is underway after a worker from Revere was found dead at The Country Club in Brookline days before the US Open, officials said.
David C. McConnell, 60, was working a security detail at the US Open site and was working on some setup when he fell about 10 feet at some point during the night, according to a statement released by the Norfolk County District Attorney’s office.
His coworkers found him dead in the morning and at this point, investigators said there were no immediate signs of foul play.
According to authorities, it appears McConnell may have fallen from a decking area behind a tent that did not have railings.
OSHA responded to the scene to open a workplace safety investigation.
The US Open is set to get underway at the golf course on June 16.
No further details have been released.
