A Philadelphia man working for a Bucks County contracting company was killed Friday when a balcony collapsed at a condominium complex in Sea Isle City, police said Saturday.
The incident is under investigation by Sea Isle City police detectives with assistance from the Cape May County Prosecutor’s Office and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The Spinnaker was evacuated and additional rescue personnel and equipment were brought in.
