UPDATE: Ministry Investigating Deadly Fall

A man who fell through a skylight at Ventra Plastics in Windsor has died.

The Vollmer employee was rushed to Windsor Regional Hospital's Ouellette Campus Thursday afternoon around 1:10pm, suffering what was described as "severe trauma."

The Ontario Ministry of Labour is investigating the incident, and has issued two orders so far: one, to obtain documents of the employee's training and employment records, and another not to disturb the scene of the fall.

Ministry officials can't say how long the investigation might take.
