“We successfully implemented the plan we made and we worked with the Kelowna Fire Brigade all night,” Assistant Commissioner David Boone said.

“This family can be closed here some, and hope the community can return to normal, because the victim has now recovered.”

The Vancouver Rescue Team, composed of firefighters, paramedics, police and an engineer, is one of six such rescue teams in Canada.

After assessing the site, their work began at about 5:30 pm Pacific time on Tuesday. At about 10:45 am Pacific time on Monday, a crane collapsed from above a 25-story residential tower under construction and hit it. To the neighboring office building.

Staff struggled to keep the debris stable

The man found by the search and rescue team has been working in the tower next door. He was buried under rubble.

The twisted steel in the upper part of the crane is still leaning against the partially collapsed office building.

Boone said: “There is a lot of instability in some of the remaining fragments, so we must ensure that nothing we move will damage anything below it and complicate recovery.”

A total of five people were killed when the crane collapsed. Four are subcontractors who have been building the Brooklyn building on Bernard Avenue.
