Accident Report

Around July 24, 2026, one person was killed as the result of a work accident that happened along West Colorado Boulevard.

Preliminary information about the accident says that it happened off the corner of West Colorado Boulevard and Fort Worth Avenue. The above address appears to be the address for Stevens Park Elementary School. OSHA listed “Midtex Masonry, Llc” as the employer involved in the incident.

Right now, the OSHA inspection detail does not include specifics about the incident, it does not list any recommended penalties, and there are no alleged violations. Investigations appear to be ongoing.

How Did This Accident Occur?

OSHA looks into all kinds of things, so it’s best not to jump to conclusions when there are no real details available. This could be anything from falling material to safety equipment failure to a medical emergency. What’s particularly concerning is whether or not authorities are keeping the worker’s loved ones informed.

Over the years, I’ve worked with countless families who were left in the dark asking the same unanswered questions again and again. Sometimes, the only way to actually get them answers was independent investigators stepping in to do their own look at the evidence despite OSHA already doing their own investigations. Sometimes, that simply confirms everything authorities already knew. Other times, it catches new information that the family needs to know about. Either way, so long as the worker’s loved ones know the full story, they can make an informed decision on what path forward works best for them. Is that happening here?
