The San Diego Union-Tribune brings us an update on the Scaffolding Collapse in San Diego back in Late August – (Raw Video Footage). Cal-OSHA has released an official report detailing the fault of the collapse rests on the shoulders of a Scaffolding Contractor, ‘Paramount Scaffold, Inc.’  Cal-OSHA has issued a total fine of $10,120 for two violations of California Safety Regulations.

Perhaps the most publicized of the lawsuits arising from the accident has been filed by the widow of Tyrone Allen, Tina Allen, who alleges a wrongful death lawsuit, due to the fact that a crane operator had noticed the initial buckling of the Scaffold nearly an hour before it’s collapse, and nothing was done to prevent it.

Paramount Scaffold has not yet made any public comments aside from stating that they had not seen the report.
